The CATC Plan provides a framework to support the use of instructional technology in your school. It is also used to

gather information to build central plans to support and facilitate school plans.

Your CATC Plan should be aligned with the WRDSB System Improvement Plan and the goals of your SchoolImprovement Plan. When planning for your Digital Learning Focus, Professional Learning, Networking Requests, Software

Requests, App Requests and Additional Peripherals ensure each area aligns with your School Improvement Plan.

The CATC plan is also a document that should be used throughout the year when making additional purchases, planning

professional learning, addressing new initiatives and developing partnerships.
