- About
Naace is a community of teachers, school leaders, advisers, consultants and commercial partners working across all areas of UK education who share a vision for the developing role of technology in education.
As a professional association, we support schools to embed the use of technology by collating the latest research in our Advancing Education Journal, gathering evidence of good practice from schools that have been awarded NaaceMark, and providing access to our EdTech Review Framework to support schools on their EdTech journey.
We undertake independent research on behalf of our members into the state of education technology across the sector. The results reveal a detailed picture of where we are now with EdTech in the UK, the challenges for schools, and the approaches that can be taken to address those challenges.
Who is Naace?
Naace members and sponsoring partners work in both public and private sectors. They represent a range of professions in the education sphere including teachers, school leaders, consultants, software developers, technicians, university lecturers, student teachers, company executives, national partners and colleagues from commerce and industry.
Our members and partners share a passion for embedding the effective use of technology into teaching, learning and school management. If you share this passion and are looking to collaborate with like-minded professionals, join Naace to become part of our community.
