Abstract Digital pedagogy is now an important part of contemporary education, but its successful implementation is significantly teacher readiness. This paper aims to understand teacher readiness for integrating digital pedagogy in schools, identify the key barriers that hinder its effective use, examine the institutional and professional support mechanisms available to teachers, and recommend strategies for improving and sustaining technology-supported teaching practices. The review indicates that while teachers generally exhibit basic digital abilities, they frequently struggle with using advanced competencies and pedagogical strategies required for effective technology integration in the classroom. There are still a few obstacles such as limited digital competence, poor infrastructure, inadequate training and resistance to change that restrict a meaningful use of digital resources in the classroom practices. The literature also points out the value of institutional and professional support systems like access to technological resources, supportive leadership, and the sustained, practice-based professional growth in boosting the confidence and competence of teachers. The paper summarizes that the concerted effort that incorporates a sustained training curriculum, adequate resources, and facilitative policies is needed to enhance the teacher readiness besides the successful and sustainable inclusion of digital pedagogy in school education.
