Bun Sgoil Bhreascleit
Bun Sgoil Bhreascleit in the Western Isles will run after school and lunch time clubs teaching coding and robotics using Spheros, Code-a-pillars, LEGO WeDo and LEGO Mindstorm. The clubs will give pupils an opportunity to develop their programming skills using Scratch and Python. By providing resources with a range of complexity, these sessions will be progressive from simple Code-a-pillars through to building and programming more complex robotic systems. The school also aim to help raise awareness amongst parents and carers about the career opportunities available to their children and demonstrate that geography and location need not be a barrier.
