I also believe that having an edtech code would likely give birth to an industry of standards and certification schemes, as in so many areas from wifi protocols to the strength of our car windscreens. Perhaps most important of all, it would give a basis for DfE procurement. School communities are a combination of furious and overwhelmed by the number of duties foisted on them. Procurement standards would liberate their time and anxiety. The misery of realising the state-of-the-art filtering and monitoring system that a school bought at great expense last year is no longer fit for purpose is quite devastating, and I have seen it repeatedly.
