On 22nd March 2023 we are hosting a session to help support schools and teachers with the Digital Schools Award Scotland and to also encourage Digital Wellbeing Award registrations and journeys.
The Digital Wellbeing Award (and the associated Digital Wellbeing Framework) has been designed by Digital Schools Award (supported by Scottish Government, Child Protection Unit & Police Scotland) to provide education professionals with the resources and support required to help pupils safely navigate the digital world.
Session Outline:
Practitioners from two Edinburgh schools are kindly joining us to share their experiences of achieving their Digital Schools Award Scotland. One of the schools has now also started their journey with the Digital Wellbeing Award.
Beverley McCormick, educator and validator for the Digital Schools Awards program, will join us and offer her input into the role of the validator as critical friend and guide for the process. Her input will help to demystify the award application process and impress the importance of how we should approach digital technologies in schools and address the importance of digital wellbeing.
The session will also provide the opportunity to ask questions and make contacts with other schools/educators to support your DSAS and DWA registration and journey.
Date: 22nd of March
Venue: Online
Time: 4-5pm
