In bid to support teaching games at school, the expert group at the CIHE (Council for Industry and Higher Education) has released a report asking government to get more video games industry types involved in GCSEs, A Levels and University Degrees. This will be done to curb the skills crisis affecting the UK IT and digital industries. In a new report entitled The Fuse, the group suggests that the current ICT curriculum fails to properly prepare students for a computing degree or a career in digital technology. It calls on UK developers – led by trade body TIGA – to promote student volunteer schemes through schools and universities.
