A conference is an effective way of educating and training large numbers of schools across the authority on the issues surrounding device use harms and how to manage these within the school. As part of the conference, all attendees will be trained on how to deliver the Be Device Wise programme in their schools and will leave as accredited providers of this programme, able to deliver it in their schools.
