We're thrilled to announce that Python in Pieces has won an Educational Resources Award (ERA) in the Secondary Resource or Equipment – ICT category!

Although we have always been proud of how well Python in Pieces supports schools with transitioning students from block code to text-based coding, it's fantastic to have this recognised by ERA's panel of judges.

Red Nose Day is back on Friday 20th March and there's loads of fun activities that schools can get involved in to help raise funds.

2BeSafe is an award-winning online safety scheme of work from Purple Mash, which meets the guidance set out in the Department for Education's Education for a Connected World document. Sessions are short and designed to fit into a busy timetable, with no need for extra devices. Find out more about it in this blog.

We launched Python in Pieces, an interactive coding environment, designed to build student and teacher confidence in the text-based coding language of Python at Bett in January and are pleased to say that it has already been shortlisted for an ERA award.

This is the second part of our Q and A session with the developers of the programme, to look at how it supports pupils and why Python should be taught in schools.
