Bournside Cyber Day

There’s nothing quite like inspiring 300 enthusiastic students and teaching them about the wonderful world of cyber security!

We were thrilled to host our first cyber day at Bournside school in Cheltenham and help inspire 300 of their enthusiastic year 7 students! With the help of our community and an awesome group of industry pro’s, we gave the students a flavour of the cyber security industry through a range of interactive activities and workshops.

We had a total of 8 companies join us to run sessions, with activities ranging from lock picking and writing phishing emails, to real life flying drones! We also had a visit from the DigiBus which was parked outside on the school campus. The students loved it!

Our cyber days wouldn’t be possible without the help of our community, so a huge thank you to all the industries that supported us. CACI, BAE Systems, Cyber First, North Green Security, Amiosec, DigiBus, Gemba Advantage, Cybsafe

And of course, another huge thank you to Bournside school for hosting us. It was great to see so many of your students excited about a possible career in the cyber industry. We think Bournside may be home to a lot of future cyber entrepreneurs!
