In an age of rapid technological advancement, equipping pupils with strong digital literacy skills is more important than ever. This practical, forward-looking course is designed to help educators support students in becoming thoughtful, critical, and creative users of digital technologies—including emerging tools like artificial intelligence.

Drawing on the DfE’s interim Curriculum and Assessment Review, which calls for “heightened media literacy and critical thinking, as well as digital skills,” this session will explore how to integrate these competencies meaningfully into your teaching. Participants will examine both the opportunities and risks of digital technology, helping students to navigate and shape their digital world with confidence and care.

Whether you’re teaching computing, PSHE, or embedding digital awareness across the curriculum, this course will provide strategies and insights to ensure your learners are truly prepared for life and work in a digital age.

Explore how digital literacy can be used by learners to support access and engagement with the curriculum.
