This study draws on national databases to provide a descriptive-correlational analysis of ICT adoption and use in the student population in primary and secondary education. The results show that Internet and technology access is strongly segmented; digital stratification goes beyond access, and different uses are observed based on the student’s cultural capital. Schools are most successful at offsetting the digital divide, making access to ICT possible (albeit restricted) for a significant number of students in lower-income sectors. Las TIC ocupan en la actualidad un importante espacio en la vida cotidiana, pues son utilizadas en diversos contextos y con diferentes finalidades; no obstante, existe un sector de la población excluido de las oportunidades que las TIC brindan, exclusión determinada por el nivel socioeconómico. Utilizando bases de datos nacionales, en la presente investigación se hace un análisis descriptivo-correlacional de la penetración y usos de las TIC en la población escolar de enseñanza básica y media en Chile. Los resultados indican que el acceso a Internet y a las tecnologías está fuertemente segmentado; la estratificación digital va más allá del acceso y existen usos diferenciados con base en el capital cultural del estudiante. La escuela se configura como el principal elemento compensador de la brecha digital posibilitando el acceso (aunque restringido) a las TIC para una proporción importante de estudiantes de los sectores de menores ingresos.
