Only 21% of pupils who took Computer Science at GCSE in 2023 were girls.
3.7 million families with children fall below the Minimum Digital Living Standard.
5 million workers will be under-skilled in basic digital capabilities by 2030.
Poverty is a key predictor for both digital access and skills.
Things cannot stay the same.
At Digital Schoolhouse, we want you to join us to make the change.
Today, we are proud to announce our new Mission, which will help us to ensure every child has access to the career-ready skills, creative confidence and computational thinking they need in a digital future.
After eleven incredible years, 77% of schools in the United Kingdom are within 50km of a Digital Schoolhouse, meaning they have access to all of our workshops and events.
But we need to do more.
So here is our aim:
By 2030 Every Child In Britain will have access to a Digital Schoolhouse.
And to achieve that we need your support - we need more businesses to partner with us to go further and faster than we ever have before.
If you want to help us ensure that Every Child has a Digital Future, get in touch with us here:
Today marks a new beginning, and a future where no child is digitally left behind.
