This is the fourth session of this professional learning network.

This five part professional learning network is for ELC practitioners working in ELC settings in Scotland who aspire to become DSAS awarded settings with the new Digital Learning Through Play in ELC Award.

Guided by Education Scotland’s Digital Team, you will work together, through the award framework to make quality improvements in digital learning in your ELC settings (maximum 30 settings).

Collectively, the group will explore each area of the DSAS Framework for ELC and investigate where digital technologies provide opportunities to design unique learning spaces outside and indoors, (enabling children to play and learn with and through technology) and be guided on how to evidence this.

You will receive a link to join the meetings via the email you use to sign up. This will be a Team meeting link (no Glow log in required). Please use your organisation/ELC setting/local authority email address.

At the end of the program settings can opt to apply for award validation via DSAS.

You may also wish to join one of the introductory session webinars. 

Please note the 30 places in this network are on a first come first served basis. Only one member of staff per setting can sign up on behalf of the setting.
