About Becta

The ICT Excellence Awards is an awards scheme for schools, local authorities and other organisations supporting schools. These awards aim to identify and reward whole school excellence in ICT and reward those organisations who support school improvement with ICT. The ICT Excellence Awards were established in 2006.

Building on Becta's self-review framework and the ICT Mark they provide clear examples of excellent practice from schools and organisations across the UK and in Service Children’s Education settings abroad.
