Digital
Pioneers have developed a new mapping tool for the Digital Competence Framework
(DCF). It enables schools to cross-reference current teaching in subjects and
years with elements of the DCF to show levels of DCF coverage, helping them
plan to cover the full range of skills within each element over the course of a
year. The tool will also help schools to spread DCF coverage more evenly across
the school.
