We're celebrating National Pet Month from 1st April to 2nd May. It's all about raising awareness for pet welfare and spreading the word about responsible pet ownership. In this blog, as well as looking at some Purple Mash resources you can use during this time, we also meet some of the pets of 2Simple.

Anti-Bullying Week is coordinated In England and Wales by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and takes place from 10th-14th November 2025 with the theme Power for Good. Odd Socks Day will be held on Monday 10th November, where adults and children wear odd socks to celebrate what makes us all unique. In this post we look at resources from across the web that you can use to raise awareness.

We were recently lucky enough to be invited to Sunnyfields, a lovely one form entry primary school in North London to see how the 2Simple Centre for Excellence school use Purple Mash across the curriculum. With their high usage across subject areas and outstanding teaching of computing, we knew this would be a great place to visit.

The countdown is on for #Bett2024 and we can't wait to be there!

It's always a fantastic few days getting to meet our community in person so we hope you'll come along to stand SH21 and say hello!

One of the themes for Bett is Wellbeing. Our solutions from 2Simple have wellbeing at their core helping teachers save valuable time, improve work-life balance and teach pupils key skills around relationships and positive mental health.

Outdoor Classroom Day is a global movement to inspire and celebrate outdoor play and learning at school and at home. The twice-yearly event is a time for teachers to celebrate with a special day outdoors for their class.

There are plenty of outdoor learning activities that you can use to stimulate outdoor exploration and build on learning, come rain or shine...
