Want to create that learning buzz and spark in your classroom this year?

Wish to see your learners minds-on and hands-on?

The new Engineering Educates Robotics Challenge can provide you with an answer! A fully-integrated series of challenges, that you can pick-and-mix, and most importantly align to the curriculum! 
Bringing together Design & Technology, Science, Computing and Literacy, Engineering Educates introduces two new STEM challenges to your learners with everything you need:
  • Teacher and pupil resources, free to access and quick to download
  • Regular webinar opportunities for your professional learning when you want it
  • Be inspired by seeing and sharing learning with others
The next two Challenges will drop in the Spring term, and we keep it coming in 2025-2026!
Explore the new theme ready for your classroom!
Inspired by real-world robotics engineering
Available now! New Shop-a-bot and Motion in the Ocean Challenges. 

Each resource pack includes all you need: 
  • three curriculum-aligned lessons: you can pick to do one, two or all three!
  • Careers Chats with real-world engineers
  • a Toolkit to support learners to think and work using an engineering mindset

A fantastic Farmvention Challenge - still available!

Loved the EngEd Farmvention Challenge? It's all still available for you!

The Robotics Challenge builds on the award-winning Engineering Educates: Farmvention Challenge, brought to you with our partners, the NFU.

We've packaged it up and shared it in our new ARCHIVE section of the website.
This means it will always be there as an inspirational and practical resource to develop engineering habits and skills linked to British Farming contexts.
