@twostraws That sounds great - we'd love to have an account setup @CompSciAdams

@BathAcComputing I know it's a little late for this year, but I built a huge collection of preparation material for CyberFirst Girls, and it's completely free for all UK schools. I'd be happy to set you up with a free account in case it helps next year! hacktivate.io

Yesterday we had 28 of our amazing S2 girls involved in the @NCSC #cyberfirst Cyber Girls competition for this year. The girls worked all day in the department and solved so many of the challenge that were available. Well done!!! No photos this year 😢
