Main Topics In Our Curriculum
All our topics meet, merge and overlap at many points. They are often interdependent and certainly knowledge of one gives an advantage in others.
Robotics
Build and program robots that move, sense and react, combining mechanics, electronics and code to tackle challenges and complete real tasks.
Micro-controllers
Use popular micro‑controllers (Arduino, Micro-Bit, Raspberry Pi) to read sensors and control outputs, writing code that connects the digital world to lights, motors and everyday devices.
Maths Explorers - Beyond The Classroom
Stretching confident learners with puzzles, real‑world projects, & challenge problems, building deep understanding, resilience, & problem‑solving skills that go far beyond school maths.
3D Printing
Turn digital designs into physical objects, learning how printers work, preparing models, and exploring sustainable making by reusing or recycling materials where possible.
C.A.D.
Design in 3D using kid‑friendly CAD tools, turning ideas into accurate digital models ready for printing, prototyping and real‑world engineering projects.
Soldering & Electronics
Learn safe soldering skills by assembling real electronic circuits, understanding components, good joints and fault‑finding while building practical take‑home projects.
Mechanical Engineering
Explore forces, structures and mechanisms through hands‑on builds, including our bridge challenge where teams design, test and improve their own load‑bearing bridges.
App. Building
Plan, design and create simple apps, learning user interface basics, logic, and how software solves real problems on phones and tablets.
Web Development
Discover how websites work by building real pages with HTML, CSS and simple scripts, focusing on clear structure, accessibility and visual design.
Coding
Develop problem‑solving skills and logical thinking through coding challenges, from puzzles and games to controlling hardware and automating simple tasks.
Data & Sensors
Collect, log and visualise real‑world data with sensors, learning how scientists use measurements to test ideas and improve designs.
Machine Learning/ A.I. Risks & Benefits
Train simple machine‑learning models, see where AI helps and fails, and discuss fairness, bias, privacy and responsible use in everyday life.
