Vodafone UK initiates schools.connected to tackle digital divide in education
Vodafone UK is establishing its schools.connected initiative in order to provide free connectivity to approximately 250 000 children across the UK. The objective of the project is to help children access school assignments from home and catch up on studying during the holidays or in case of necessary isolation due to COVID-19. For the time being, the schools.connected programme is available to primary and secondary school children across the UK.
