Y7 Digital Leaders are welcomed by PCJS Digital Leaders
Our DLs know they are special, because due to the hard work of Mrs Gow at Pickering Community Junior School, we have Digital Leaders in our biggest feeder Primary School as well as at Lady Lumley’s. We had heard exciting news about the new ICT suite at PCJS, so we were looking forward to seeing the new room.
However, it is about developing young people rather than the technology, so as you can see from the comments below, there was greater excitement about seeing friends and ex-teachers.

Digital Leaders – a few students who help out or a great strategy to improve your school’s computing and ICT as well as develop your young people?
We now have a framework and complete set of Level 1 and Level 2 Digital Leader Open Badges. These are available for consultation during September and will be available via the Makewaves platform from the beginning of October.
I would like to outline my vision for developing Digital Leaders in my school and our main feeder primary using these badges. I want my students to qualify as level 2 Digital Leaders in the next 12 to 18 months. I also want the plan to be sustainable to continue producing Digital Leaders with ongoing capacity to improve ICT within both schools.
I am not going to worry about Level 1 badges. I know my Digital Leaders have been working and are capable of working at Level 2 and that is what I am going to get them working on.
There are nine badges:
Leader
Networker
Reporter
Creator
Educator
Presenter
Technician
Reviewer
Safeguarder More
