Based on three one-day workshops with teachers, we identify drivers and barriers for introducing cybersecurity into secondary school education. We found that students, although more knowledgeable in cybersecurity than their teachers, lacked understanding of career pathways and online safety. Teachers, however, lacked adequate knowledge and resources.
