To meet the growing demand for digital skills, the National Centre for Computing Education has been set up to make a significant contribution to the teaching of computing education throughout England.
The NCCE supports the teaching of computing in schools and colleges across all key stages, giving teachers the subject knowledge and skills to establish computing as a core part of the curriculum.
As a part of this, there are training courses available for primary and secondary teachers across the South West, currently there are courses available in Truro, starting in May 2019. Completing a mixture of face to face and online courses will allow teachers to gain certification carrying the Royal Academy of Engineering accreditation.
Much of the training is free and where it is not free, it is available at low cost to state schools at £35.00 per day.
