The revised curriculum will give Victorian students the best opportunity to actively contribute to the current and future needs of an increasingly complex and changing world.

Digital Technologies Version 2.0 reflects the expertise and feedback from Victorian teachers, with the revised curriculum making it easier for teachers to plan, assess and report on student learning.

Digital Technologies Version 2.0 includes all the content and skills students require for success in the VCE Applied Computing Study Design.

Our children are growing up in a digital world, where technology is constantly changing and developing. It is crucial we empower our children with skills for cyber safety and digital wellbeing.

At Badger Creek Primary School, we have a planned scope and sequence for digital learning across the school. We have specific lessons targeting digital learning, along with connecting to our Literacy, Maths and Inquiry learning.

We work with the team at Cyber Safety Project to implement a whole school community approach to cyber safety and digital wellbeing. With a focus on proactive education, the program empowers students, educators and the wider school community to self-manage their digital safety and wellbeing.

A whole-school approach ensures consistent messages and strategies for everyone. This supports safe environments for students across home and school. Programs we provide include,

• Students participate in incursions where they develop online safety skills they can apply to any online platform. There is a focus on the four key online values of responsibility, integrity, strength, and empathy.
• Staff are involved with annual professional learning, keeping up-to-date with the latest in cyber safety and digital wellbeing education.
• Parents are invited to watch webinars run by experts in the field, that explore a diverse range of topics pertinent to raising children in a digital age.

Our approach to cyber safety education is aligned with department policies.
