This series brings a fresh approach to ICT for students from 7 to 14 years old, mapped to the Cambridge ICT Starters syllabus for examination from 2019.

In the Next Steps Stage 1 Digital Learner’s Book, learners develop their understanding of documents and images.

The resource introduces new areas – such as databases, spreadsheets and working with multimedia. Students will create articles and use spreadsheets to plan a school trip.

Each activity is clearly introduced, with step-by-step guidance to help learners master new skills. Key words and visual examples support students’ understanding.

• Clear learning objectives at the start of every module demonstrate specific syllabus skills and whether they correspond to a Pass or Merit grade.
• A ‘Before you start’ section links back to prerequisite knowledge, ensuring students are prepared and ready to tackle the module.
• A strong emphasis on e-safety throughout the series encourages students to stay safe on the internet.
• Fun activities – including creating images, exploring multimedia and programming – provide a steady step-by-step approach.
• A practical activity at the end of each module provides task-based learning where students can consolidate all of their skills.
