“Digital threats are everywhere”

2025 is the Year of Digital Citizenship Education – but are schools up to the task of equipping young people with the digital skills they need to stay safe online?

Excellent article by Prof David Lundie for @tesmagazine.bsky.social

www.tes.com/magazine/ana...
Why cyberattacks on Scottish schools make digital skills crucial
Digital threats seem to be everywhere - yet the digital part of children’s identities cannot be removed when they step inside a school, says Professor David Lundie
