Digital Technology & Enterprise combine the best of both worlds, learning about digital technologies and how to turn dreams into reality. We strive to unlock your hidden potential and help you develop your decomposition and problem-solving skills, which you can use in any aspect of life.

Our Approach
We aim to provide real-world skills by knowing the power & purpose of education by developing a growth mindset. We attain this by developing a pupils decomposition, problem-solving skills, independence, teamwork, respect for others' views, opinions, and self-esteem through personal reflection. As for the wider community digital technologies, careers, social media, E-safety, cybersecurity, and how using technology can benefit the local community.
By the time pupils leave Ark Boulton, they will have developed a deep understanding of what is happening in the wider community and their local community. Pupils are allowed to develop themselves to be the new leaders of digital technology and the next entrepreneurs of industry.
