Minister for Education and Skills

Under the Schools Broadband Access Programme, my Department provides for the supply of internet connectivity for all recognised primary schools. A framework involving more providers was put in place in 2012 which ensures that improved solutions are being made available to schools. The Department is continually working with providers to ensure that where possible improved services are made available to schools.

Under the current mini competition 82 primary schools in Wicklow have been awarded new services (see table below). The Department and its partners are currently engaged in facilitating the migration of these schools to their new contract services. For some schools, it may not be possible to install the proposed solution. In those instances, the affected schools will be handed back to the Department to be awarded to the next best solution.All post-primary schools throughout the country, including Wicklow, have a 100Mbit/s connection in place.
