As part of the “Digital School Saxony” initiative, the Saxon State Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs is funding a Saxony-wide school network to strengthen computer and media education. The main aim of the initiative is to prepare young people at an early stage for the challenges of an increasingly digitalized working and living environment. Schools that are particularly committed to computer science, computer science-related disciplines and digitalization can apply for this title. The new application round will start in April 2024.
The 24 network schools will receive support in the implementation of individual objectives through exchanges with other schools and the involvement of external stakeholders such as regional companies, universities and research institutions. The aim is to create new learning spaces for pupils in order to arouse a broader interest in computer science and relieve the burden on teachers when designing lessons.
