Digital skills CPD to support STEM subjects
It’s now absolutely vital that students are taught digital skills, especially given their importance at helping young people prepare for the transition from school to employment and the wider world. Our digital skills CPD courses for teachers equip them with the skills and confidence to teach digital skills.
Digital skills stretch across STEM. With an ever increasing reliance on technology, understanding topics such as artificial intelligence can open many doors across STEM sectors.
With the UK Government's Digital Strategy now firmly embedded, the need for digital skills is growing, and so is our support for schools. Find out how you can support students to thrive digitally in secondary education through our offer.
