This challenge is seeking to explore ways in which technology could support a reduction in workload, allowing teachers to focus their time on the activities which make the biggest contribution to outcomes for learners.

Link Description: Teachers play a pivotal role in not just the education of children and young people but in the wider communities they are part of. This role has become increasingly evident throughout the recovery from the Covid 19 pandemic however this has also placed significant additional pressures on teachers. This challenge is seeking to explore ways in which technology could support a reduction in workload, allowing teachers to focus their time on the activities which make the biggest contribution to outcomes for learners.
Lot Description: CivTechâs mission is to drive daring and innovation in the public sector by collaboratively solving Challenges that make peopleâs lives better â and in doing so create generations of sustainable, high growth businesses. CivTech brings together public sector expertise and private sector innovation to solve real problems, develop new products, and deliver better, faster and easier services for everyone. Central to the approach is co-production with the citizen. Part of the Scottish Governmentâs Digital Directorate, CivTechâs approach is helping transform public sector engagement with tech and innovation, delivering significant benefits to public services, producing genuine uplifts for the Scottish economy - and along the way, making lives better. Across the country there are problems public sector organisations would like to solve and in the current environment the need for smart, efficient and effective products has never been greater. The Scottish Government is aware innovation is a good way to create them and is committed to ensuring a large part of its tech spend goes to smaller, innovative businesses. This is where CivTech comes in. The CivTech Innovation Flow is designed to create products as quickly and effectively as possible and uses a true Accelerator model at the heart of its Innovation Flow model. For you â whether youâre an individual, team or company â itâs an opportunity to take on a Challenge, solve it, and win contracts with a blue-chip public sector organisation. Youâll build a product, and a business to take it as far as possible. Because hereâs the kicker: the Challenges we issue arenât âsingle organisationâ problems â most exist worldwide. In short: Open Challenges are set. Any organisation, team or individual can respond. Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage where theyâre developed further [for which participating applicants are paid]. The best go through to the Accelerator â a period of intensive work to create the solution, and through CivTechâs unique business workshop system, a business capable of taking the product to the world.
