Put your pupils’ problem solving skills to the test. To crack our codes, pattern recognition and problem solving are key. Cracking Cryptography will call on young people’s current skills while helping them develop new ones. It's perfect for P5 to S3 pupils.

Create curiosity about cyber security careers. After the session, you may have the next generation of computer whizzes on your hands. Good news – our advisers will introduce cyber careers and next steps for anyone who wants to find out more.
