Up to 3,000 rural primary schools will get fast fibre broadband over the next three years as part of a £82 million scheme.
Funding for up to 2,000 schools will come from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport’s (DCMS) “GigaHubs” programme to deliver fast and reliable broadband to hard-to-reach areas.
Another 1,000 schools will be funded by the Department for Education to enable every school in England to access high-speed internet by 2025.
