Workshop

Technology for Everything - Assembly 2

This live virtual assembly on 23 June 2025 will show your students how technology can bring together their skills and interest in Geography, Science, Computing, and Design

Technology for Everything - Assembly 2

Do your students know how technology can help us solve problems, bring new designs ideas to reality, or even make predictions about the future?

Tech for Geography, Science, Computing and Design is the second assembly in a brand-new series for Year 6 and Year 7 students.

Join Tech She Can on Monday 23 June at 2pm, when their Tech She Can Teacher, Katie, will deliver a free virtual 25 minute Tech We Can LIVE assembly. The content of this assembly has been developed for Year 6 and Year 7 students, but is suitable for students aged 10-13.

Starting secondary school means that students have a fantastic opportunity to study subjects in more depth and in dedicated lessons, but it can also mean that the links between subjects become less visible to them. Through this assembly, Tech She Can will open your students’ eyes to how technology can bring together their skills and interests from different subjects, and also highlight some of the exciting future technology careers available.

Students do not need any resources to participate. The content is ideal in the classroom environment, hall or from home.
