Only 1 in 60 students have access to digital learning opportunities outside of the classroom

Only 1 in 60 students have access to digital learning opportunities outside of the classroom: The latest numbers from the UK Parliament estimate that the digital skills gap currently costs the UK #63 billion a year. This number is hardly surprising when only 35% of teachers in the UK have the relevant degree to be teaching these skills. As a result, students need to turn to other sources of information to not only find out what options are available to them after they leave education, but to get to grips with the skills that they need to succeed once they do.
