Abstract

Whilst the education system in Northern Ireland (NI) has achieved success in sustaining relevant digital inclusive education, this is also true, of course, with respect to its individual schools. Examples of effective successes are identified through the NI ICT Excellence Awards , which has run over the past ten years, with school practices presented and awarded in June 2024. One of those examples of successful practices explored how a school had integrated computational thinking and computing across the school and across the curriculum for young people.
