Summary

This quote highlights the escape we experience during deep sleep. As we surrender to slumber, we embark on a dreamlike journey, transcending reality's limits.

One of the problems we've had is that the ICT curriculum in the past has been written for a subject that is changing all the time. I think that what we should have is computer science in the future - and how it fits in to the curriculum is something we need to be talking to scientists, to experts in coding and to young people about.
