🧲

Magnetronics

Electronics · Ages 6-11 · 60-120 mins

Our flagship award-winning product. Learners snap together real electronic components to build working circuits, then push further into design challenges.

💡

Invention Lab

Ideation & Design · Ages 11+ · 90mins +

Teams take on a real engineering problem: design a solution, prototype it and pitch it to the room. Fun to do, and built around skills your team uses every day: communication, presenting, teamwork, problem-solving and research.

💻

Micro:bit Sessions

Coding & AI · Ages 6-15 · 90-180 mins

Coding becomes physical. Students program BBC Micro:bits and connect their code to hardware they can hold. Recently, we have added in Hardware AI which is becoming popular.

The workshop your students talk about at home

You know the moment a class switches on: when the theory becomes a thing in their hands. That's the moment we build every session around, from KS2 to KS5 and FE.

  • Curriculum-linked: mapped to KS2–KS5 objectives, so the fun counts.
  • DBS checked: our staff are DBS checked for work in schools.
  • Zero prep for you: we bring the equipment and lesson plan.
  • Fits your timetable: our sessions can be tailored around a single class, whole year group or even a school.

Programming that pulls people in and brings them back

You need sessions that work for whoever walks through the door: various ages, mixed confidence, no sign-up guarantees. Ours are built for exactly that.

  • Drop-in or booked: flexible formats for holiday programmes, family days and regular clubs.
  • Mixed-age by design: a seven-year-old and their parent or guardian can build side by side.
  • Shareable outcomes: glowing creations make brilliant photos for your socials and funders' reports.
  • We handle the kit: your team hosts; we run the making.

Community Groups

Confidence you can hold in your hands

For youth groups and community organisations, because "I made this" changes how people see what they're capable of.

  • No experience assumed, ever: sessions meet every learner.
  • Real, practical skills: electronics, coding and making that connect to real opportunities.
  • At your space: community rooms, youth centres, wherever your people already are.
  • Invention Lab for teen groups: a real problem, a designed solution and a pitch. Ages 11 and up.
Aged 18 - 24? Our adult learning might be for you. Adult Learning →

Team days that actually build something
Companies & Teams

Team days that actually build something

Ideal for team days, skills workshops and graduate programmes. Teams take on a real problem: design a solution, prototype it and pitch it to the room. Fun to do, and built around skills your team uses every day: communication, presenting, teamwork, problem-solving and research.

  • Communication and pitching: every team presents to the room.
  • Creative problem-solving: no script and no right answer. A problem, a deadline and whatever's on the table.
  • Collaboration under pressure: small teams, tight rounds, everyone hands-on.
  • Want variety?: Code Breakers, the Telegraph Challenge, or a day designed around your goals.

Good questions

Everything organisers ask us

How much does a workshop cost?

Every group is different, so we quote per session based on what you need: group size, duration, format and location. Tell us about your group through the quote form and we'll come back with clear options. No obligation.

What group sizes do you work with?

It depends on the workshop and the venue. We've run everything from small clubs to large groups, and we shape the format to fit. Tell us your numbers in the quote form and we'll design the session around them.

What ages are the workshops for?

Our core sessions run from KS2 (age 6+) right through to adults: schools and colleges, family groups, community groups and workplace teams. We tailor the content and challenge to whoever's in the room.

Are your staff DBS checked?

Yes. Our staff are DBS checked for work in schools and with vulnerable people.

What do we need to provide?

A space with tables and your group. We bring the components and materials. We'll confirm any venue specifics with you (like IT or your laptops) when we plan the session.

Where do you travel?

Across the whole of the UK, and occasionally further: we've showcased our work internationally, including in Paris at the British Ambassador's residence. We also run sessions remotely, so distance never rules you out.

Can you run recurring sessions or a whole programme?

Yes. Alongside one-off workshops we build multi-session programmes, holiday schedules and termly clubs with you. Mention it in your enquiry and we'll shape it together.
