This plan describes the school connectivity to the Internet and how this access will be distributed to the network devices at the school. Most importantly, it goes hand-in-hand with the Sustainability Plan because many schools have been unable to keep their Internet access beyond the first year. Specific hardware and software elements are given. The foundation for the plan is the whitepaper titled Telecommunications in Samoa since 2010 (focus: Internet connectivity), which describes the network environment of Sāmoa in detail.

The teachers at the Lalomanu Primary school have training during the year. This training needs to be augmented with materials to aid them, first in using ICT to teach, and secondly how to teach digital literacy skills. This plan does not replace existing training plans specified by the Ministry of Education and Culture.

This plan will spell out the additional materials used to create lessions for the students. There are a number of existing curricula that have been created by both commercial and non-commercial organizations. The Foundation does not intend to re-invent the wheel and start from scratch. This plan will cover exactly which lessons and modules can be imported in the overall curriculum.

The plan describes an option, if funding permits, to share the Lalomanu Primary School Internet bandwidth with these four schools within 4.82 km of Lalomanu: The primary schools at Satitoa, Saleaaumua, and Samusu, along with the secondary school at Aleipata. Such sharing leverages the investment in the Starlink ground station and provides an extended local network across the five schools. This, for example, could allow a teacher at one school address a class at another school.

There have been projects, both large and small, to provide schools with Internet access and materials to teaching ICT skills to their students. Unfortunately, many schools have been left back at square one due to the lack of funds, obsolete technology, single vender reliance, and no technical support staff. This plan maps a path towards long-term stability by using a community based model rather than a top-down model. As the independent evaluation of the School Net project states, “…starting small and phasing activities is likely to deliver more sustainable results.”
