- Sky Up Academy Studios Event for Schools: Sky Up Academy Studios in Livingston will host visiting schools in an immersive experience that supports online safety, digital wellbeing and responsible media creation. Pupils will step into the role of content creators, producing news reports, films and creative media. The sessions are designed to prompt meaningful discussion and critical thinking around staying safe and respectful online, digital footprints, identifying misinformation and using technology positively to share stories and ideas. This experiential model links learning directly to the ways students consume and create content, fostering safe, empathetic and responsible digital behaviour.
