The Brunts Digital faculty have signed all of our Keystage 3 students up to the iDEA qualification (inspiring Digital Enterprise Award). This is a suite of qualifications similar to the Duke of Edinburgh Awards. To achieve this qualification, students need to complete a range of units, all of which can be completed online. Each week, the computer science teachers will email each student in years 7-9 to advise them which units we would like them to complete each week. Students should feel free to cover more units if they choose to – there is a huge range to choose from.
Instructions on how to sign up along with which units to start with have already been sent out. More information can be found on this website: https://idea.org.uk/about
Please feel free to contact any of the Brunts Digital teachers for more information about this exciting course.
