We're thrilled to announce that the much-loved and iconic Alexandra Palace in North London has become our latest Mash Partner! Mash Partners are experts in their fields who deliver educational programmes outside the classroom. Thanks to funding from the National Heritage Lottery Fund, we’ve worked with the Creative Learning Team at Alexandra Palace to create an innovative and engaging 6-week project.

Purple Mash and Taskmaster Education have joined forces to find the next Taskmasher, and your pupils are invited to take part in the challenge! Get ready for a competition filled with creativity, laughter, and brilliantly silly challenges, all inspired by the hit TV show Taskmaster!  Read the blog to find out more.

The Purple Mash Taskmasher competition gave children the chance to design their own Taskmaster style task! We had loads of brilliant, hilarious, and wonderfully weird task ideas sent in by pupils worldwide—and choosing the best ones was no easy job. Every entry showed just how creative, clever, and delightfully silly young Taskmasters can be.

Purple Mash's spelling scheme of work includes teaching slides, spelling practice sheets, dictation activities and self-marking quizzes! It's easy to pick up and start, and perfect for all teachers, HLTAs and LSAs leading spelling lessons.
