The UK Government has made public its response to the Livingstone-Hope Skills Review, which in February called for computer science to be incorporated within the national curriculum.

The detailed Government response, which clocks in at some 19 pages in length, is available in full here as a download.

It recognises the value of the video games and VFX industries to the UK economy, and reveals that the state hopes to work with all concerned to implement a more focused computer science element to the UK education curriculum.
