On Friday 24th May, students @Brannel School, explored the world of innovation and problem-solving with the LEGO Spike Essential system, with George from The Education Business Partnership (EBP).

As part of their supported work experience programme, they tackled a range of challenges, from building robots to mastering coding skills. This was a culmination of a full week of activities to inspire and motivate pupils.

- A wildlife detection system with colour sensor and custom alerts

A fairground marble maze with light and sound effects

The students excelled, so we upped the ante with a thrilling mission: designing and constructing remote control vehicles for a live-action version of rocket league! They tweaked their vehicles for maximum competitiveness and fine-tuned the coding interface to tackle navigation challenges.

They enjoyed demonstrating their teamwork, problem solving, communication, coding, creativity and so much more - a great way to round of their Supported Work Experience week.
