Cyber Discovery

Cyber Discovery

Cyber Discovery, HM Government’s Cyber Schools Programme, is an extracurricular learning programme for students in years 10-13 across England. Its goal is to ensure that many more people enter the cyber security profession in the coming years.

30 students from CFGS enrolled on the first Assess stage of Cyber Discovery in December 2017. Student comments: 

“It is really good – it helps our minds to work in a problem-solving way”

“An amazing opportunity; a fun way to learn and it’s good to compete against other students.”

Based on their score in the Assess Stage, Cyber Discovery has now invited 17 of these students to continue to the Game stage. The Game stage features over 120 cyber security challenges for the students to tackle. Congratulations to these 17 students and Good Luck with the Games Challenges!

Top performing students will be invited to the third stage, CyberStart Essentials, when it opens in March 2018. The fourth and final stage of Cyber Discovery is CyberStart Elite. A select number of the very best students from across the country will be hand-picked to participate in three days of face-to-face learning, before competing in a live Capture The Flag competition.
