DSAS Digital Wellbeing Award 9 February, Course ID: 81484 @Schools_Digital
Digital wellbeing is all about understanding how our use of technology impacts children and young people’s social and emotional wellbeing. The DSA, in conjunction with Education Scotland has drawn together national and European perspectives and distilled them into a whole-school road map for promoting students’ digital wellbeing.
The award acknowledges the importance for schools of incorporating digital wellbeing as part of students’ wider pastoral care and of establishing processes that will enable young people to secure, manage and protect their own wellbeing.
Join us for a great opportunity to hear from Renfrewshire schools who have the award, as well as Jen McKay, Programme Validator for the Digital Wellbeing Award who will tell you all about how it works.
