Celebrating digital aptitude

We are delighted to celebrate the achievements of a group of talented students who have been awarded their iDEA Bronze Awards. The Inspiring Digital Enterprise Award, known as iDEA, is an internationally acclaimed programme designed to assist young individuals in cultivating digital, enterprise and employability skills. Comparable to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme in its aspiration, iDEA aims to empower young people with essential digital skills.

These accomplished students, in conjunction with their Year 8 studies, have exemplified an exceptional commitment to advancing their ICT skills, successfully earning their Bronze Award through the completion of a series of interactive, online modules or ‘badges’. These badges cover a range of topics such as Online Safety, Resolution, and User Interfaces, allowing participants to unlock new opportunities and obtain industry-recognised awards.

The following recipients have demonstrated admirable independence and determination in achieving this recognition. The skills and knowledge acquired will not only aid them in various subjects, but also equip them with capabilities applicable beyond the classroom. Their efforts serve as an inspiration to their peers, showcasing the value of dedication and persistence in the pursuit of digital literacy and excellence.

Congratulations to:
