For Teachers at KS2-KS3, Computing Leads and Heads of Department

We only have 20 spaces available. So please only register if you will actually attend.  We are expecting a high demand for this workshop.

This event will complete the BCS Digital Skills event and explore how to use the BBC micro:bit as a robotics platform and how it can connect students to a career in the field of AI and Robotics.

The hands-on workshop will explore how Robotics can be linked to the Teach Computing Curriculum at KS 2-3, how the BCS Level 1 Robotics Qualification can be used across KS 2 and 3 (and higher) to help students understand the connection between their learning and a career in the field of AI and Robotics?

Discover how Computing at School can help support robotics and computing in your school

Learn how to access free resources from the micro:bit foundation such as free teacher CPD and micro:bit classroom.

Meet like-minded fellow CAS members Face-to-Face.
