This 30-minute information giving session is for ELC practitioners working across a range of ELC settings in Scotland to find out about the exciting new Digital ELC setting award.

Join us with Digital Schools Awards Validator, Malcom Wilson as we introduce the brand new Digital ELC setting award for Scotland and find out about the new accompanying CLPL programme.

The Digital Early Learning and Childcare Digital Award for Scotland is a national award scheme to promote, recognise and encourage a whole setting approach to the use of digital technology in ELC settings.

This award has been designed to support ELC settings to integrate digital technologies into children’s play and learning experiences, both outside and indoors and recognise and celebrate where this is already happening.

Each ELC setting’s award journey will be unique and tell its own story specific to the interests and needs of the children, available resources, infrastructure and the diverse components of the wider setting including; the staff team, parents and carers and community partners.

Are you ready to go on your digital journey and tell your settings story?

There are multiple introductory sessions you can book.
