We can offer high quality PPA cover, Computing lessons, STEM curriculum or one off workshops for your pupils.
We also offer INSET training and support for your staff. With you, we can organise team building days, staff coaching for STEM competitions and we’re also LEGO Education Certified Teacher Trainers for exceptional CPD.
