Digital Confidence is a support service for schools and trusts looking to strengthen their digital leadership. Designed to give senior leaders, school business professionals and IT teams clarity and confidence in their decision-making, our service is aligned with the Department for Education's technology standards—but never driven by them.
We believe schools should have access to strategic guidance that is free from sales pressure. That’s why Digital Confidence offers impartial advice, practical tools and flexible support options to suit all school types and sizes. Whether you have an in-house IT team or work with a managed service provider, we’re here to help you make smarter digital decisions that benefit your whole school community.
Digital Confidence is a service from Limbrick Consultancy LLP, a trusted name in education consultancy. We’re also the team behind theEducationCollective, a widely respected support network serving thousands of schools across the UK.
Our work is rooted in practical experience and an in-depth understanding of how schools operate. We understand the real-world challenges faced by school leaders when navigating digital strategy—and our mission is to make that journey easier, clearer and more collaborative.
With strong sector insight and a commitment to neutrality, Limbrick Consultancy LLP has built a reputation for independence, clarity and practical advice. Digital Confidence continues that tradition, offering a scalable support model that adapts to the changing needs of schools and trusts.
