By 2030, existing digital encryption could be broken by emerging quantum computers, threatening secure communication worldwide. Addressing this, a new “Pathways Plus” programme is pioneering accessible quantum education, moving beyond traditional methods that struggled to visualise complex concepts. New tools, including quantum virtual labs and ZX calculus, aim to equip high-school and undergraduate students with the skills needed for this rapidly evolving field.
