CONNECTED SCHOOLS — CASTILE-LEON

The purpose of the Connected Schools Convention is to contribute to the provision of Internet connectivity through ultra-fast broadband networks to non-university educational institutions supported by public funds, coordinated actions with the ultimate goal of boosting technology-based entrepreneurship and Innovation throughout the national territory. These actions translate into a plan for all these centers to have better quality connectivity, seeking synergies with existing networks, in particular RedIRIS, a Spanish academic and research network whose essential function is to provide connectivity services to universities and research centers, so that, through it, the educational centers enjoy access to advanced communication services with adequate levels of security, capacity and availability. To this end, investments will be made in the necessary infrastructures, complementing the initiatives of the Autonomous Communities in this same line, paying special attention to the centers that, due to their location or their rural character, present greater difficulties to dispose of the infrastructures Enabling access to the new ultra-fast broadband services.
