Abstract
Smart school is the development frontier of ICT in education. Understanding the status quo of smart school development has a positive impact on promoting the construction and development of smart school. This study surveyed and analyzed the development of 34 smart schools in China from the five dimensions of ICT infrastructure, digital resources, ICT application, information literacy and safeguard mechanism. The results indicated that the development of the schools across five dimensions is not balanced, the smart schools showed no difference between urban schools and rural schools, while the difference of safeguard mechanism between primary school and secondary school existed. Based on the findings, this study suggested that the development of safeguard mechanism and ICT infrastructure should be improved, and secondary schools could employ more ICT staff and improve school staff training quality.
