Children respond positively to DigiSmart for a number of reasons:
- well-structured and progressional programme
- interactive and varied materials
- motivating topics and format
- clear target setting
- regular self-assessment and feedback
- good balance of challenge and enjoyment
- safe, supportive and affirming context
