Ultranet Lead Users• Schools are asked to nominate Lead Users. It is
expected that the Principal will be a Lead User.• Ultranet Coaches will train the Lead Users when
the Ultranet is deployed to the school.• Lead Users will then be responsible for providing
professional learning for school based staff.• Lead Users will work in collaboration with
Ultranet Coaches to provide ongoing professional learning to ensure the Ultranet is fully integrated.
• The number of Lead Users is based on school size.
When selecting Lead Users principals should consider staff members who are:
• Skilled classroom teachers;• Excellent communicators and positive role
models;• Confident to coach and support staff; and• Willing to use ICT to improve learning and
teaching.Note: The Lead User role does not require any
technical expertise.

Table Task
• At your table, discuss some possible starting points for your teachers. Circle these on your copy of the Mind Map
• Personalise the Mind Map for your school by adding other ‘Quick Wins’ which suit your context.
If a school is to be ready for the Ultranet, Leadership Teams need to:
• Understand the benefits of the Ultranet
• Link the Ultranet to school strategic planning
• Review School Infrastructure
• Ensure CASES Data is ready
• Consider deployment, implementation and professional learning in 2010 planning
If a teacher or team of teachers are to use the Ultranet to plan, deliver and assess contemporary learning that improves outcomes for students, then teachers will need to:
• Be aware of Ultranet functionality
• Use digital resources to support learning and teaching
• Plan collaboratively
• Develop a shared view of 21st Century learning
• Use ICT to support assessment
• Use student portfolios when reporting to parents
