Introduction

The School Inventory Report provides valuable insight into the digital citizenship and IT support processes in a school and district.. The school inventory questions are the key benchmarks that VILS uses to provide support to schools, and to inform new schools.

Completing the school inventory becomes a collaboration of the VILS Coach and School IT. Two inventory checks take place per year: one in January and one in June.
