Accreditation at the highest level

All FIRST Tech Challenge UK young people can achieve Industrial Cadets Gold Award and British Science Association CREST Gold. Our e-learning platform and Engineering Notebook make this process super easy.

“How better to explain what a career in STEM may be like than to set an exacting STEM challenge. FIRST Tech Challenge UK has everything from engineering, building to coding. But above all, seeing the students work together and help each other and support each other has been a very rewarding experience. And not just the students; this challenge has helped the Computing and Design Technology departments to work together as part of a broader STEM initiative within the school.”

Sally Smart, Design & Technology Teacher, St. Philomena’s Catholic High School for Girls
