Live virtual lessons and assemblies aimed at inspiring students to consider a career in technology!
A team of qualified teachers from Tech She Can design and deliver 20-50 minute virtual assemblies and live lessons that aim to spark curiosity and inspire children aged 11 to 14 to consider a career in technology.
Each one focuses on a different topic and explores exciting new technology, while highlighting a range of career opportunities.
By attending these live events, students discover different areas of tech and how it's used in our world.
Virtual Assemblies and Live Lessons are both hosted on Microsoft Teams. Assemblies are great for classes, or even whole schools, to join and listen to our qualified teachers. Live Lessons include paper-based tasks and partner discussions, so are best suited to joining from a classroom, rather than an assembly.
You can find details of any upcoming LIVES aligned with calendar anchor days below. These lessons can also be enjoyed on-demand after the broadcast date, or brought to life in your school by Tech We Can Champions.
