World Space Week is a UN-declared celebration of space held annually from 4th to 10th October. This year's theme is 'Living in Space'. There are lots of Space resources within Purple Mash, Serial Mash and Python in Pieces that you can use to inspire children throughout the week, to infinity and beyond!

Python in Pieces is an interactive coding environment, designed for Secondary Schools to enable teachers to confidently teach the Python language while fostering independent learning and giving hands-on experience for students.

In this blog we have hear from two of the developers of the program, where they discuss what Python in Pieces is, and how it supports computing in Secondary schools.

The Mash of the Month for April is Purple Chip, our app which allows students to control an external device using code created in Purple Mash's 2Code Purple Chip tool.

Use Purple Mash to develop confidence in coding, for both you and your pupils. Explore how it meets the National Curriculum objectives and download a free Coding with Confidence pack.

Computing is what 2Simple is most well known for, particularly Purple Mash. But those users who don't have Purple Mash always wonder what it has to offer... read this blog to find out how 2Simple can help you teach computing.
