Happy New Year!

Are you looking for a course to support your department in 2019?
If you're looking for a course to support your department our course calendar has been updated over the holiday with new dates and venues including several on exam and NEA success at GCSE, as well as new dates for our low cost D&T Roadshows, plus a couple of part bursary funded courses at the National STEM Learning Centre. 

Have you downloaded your New Year freebies yet?

Resources To Support Your Planning for the New Term

Let’s Learn is a resource bank of videos, #ThinkDo activities, web links & other information designed to support learning in D&T. Resources are constantly being added to this section of the website. 

Why not use our Product in a Tin competition as a module of work, homework, club, or as a mock NEA task? Open to years 5 - 11. Ends 1st Aug 2019.
