What’s Included:
- Pre-recorded micro:bit 'code and make' tutorials released each week during term time, building up into a library and yours to keep while you’re a member.
- Live sessions to code along, ask questions, share projects and get inspired by others. (Maximum of 15 families in live sessions). Live interaction and collaboration is encouraged.
- Differentiated challenges so both beginners and experienced coders can succeed.
- Support whenever your child needs it via the parents / carers WhatsApp group.
- Personalised Certificate on completion of each block.
What you need:
- A micro:bit starter kit - If you don't have a micro:bit yet, please check out the Story STEAM Academy shop for starter kits. https://www.storysteam.com/product/microbit-starter-kit/
- 2 screens - one to watch tutorials / join live sessions and a second screen to code on. Alternatively, you can code a micro:bit using a bluetooth enabled tablet or ipad. For this, you need to download the micro:bit app.
For some projects, you'll need some extra components such as crocodile clip leads, cardboard, foil and other household materials. We also have a few projects that use servo motors and LEDs.
*Please note, there are no live sessions this term. Live projects will resume across the academy in September 2026.
