Our Favourite STEM Education Products
The new school term is quickly approaching we have put together some of our favourite STEM educational products for primary and secondary schools, including the BBC Micro:Bit, Makey Makey, Edison Robots, Circuit Scribe and the Maker Uno an Arduino style board designed for Education!
The BBC micro:bit is a simple to use and easy to learn educational development board designed by the BBC for use within the classroom. Due to the simplicity of block programming and plug-and-play electronics the micro:bit is incredibly easy for beginners of all ages! The micro:bit helps support natural progression for learners allowing them to move away from block programming to JavaScript and MicroPython.

Inspiring a new generation of coders and used within schools worldwide, the BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that you can code, customise and control to bring your digital ideas, games and apps to life. Measuring 4cm by 5cm, and designed to be fun and easy to use. You can create anything from games and animations to scrolling stories - all you need is imagination and creativity. |
 |
This BBC micro:bit starter kit is a great way to jump right in and create projects with the BBC micro:bit. It contains 1x BBC micro:bit and a quick start guide with a USB A to micro B cable so you can plug it into a computer and get programming straight away. The battery holder with connector plugs into the BBC micro:bit supplying it with power for portable projects. Batteries are included! |
 |
This Inventor's Kit for the BBC micro:bit by Kitronik is the perfect way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the BBC micro:bit providing a fantastic way of learning how to construct and control electronic circuits. Comes with all the components you need along with an easy to follow tutorial book which guides you through everything you will need to know about programming the BBC micro:bit. |
 |
The Kitronik :MOVE mini MK 2 buggy kit for the BBC micro:bit is the latest version of the ever-popular :MOVE mini that provides a fun introduction to robotics. The :MOVE mini is a 2 wheeled robot that is suitable for autonomous operation, remote control projects via a Bluetooth application or being controlled using a second BBC micro:bit as a controller via the micro:bits radio functionality. |
The Makey Makey is a great STEM product and an ideal cross-curriculum board that can be used in any subject. designed for learners of all ages! Due to its simplicity of block programming (Scratch) and using anything that is slightly conductive to hook up all kinds of fun things as an input, for example, playing Mario with a Play-Doh keyboard. A Makey Makey is a great and fun way to learn.
 |
The Makey Makey is one of our best selling products to both primary and secondary schools due to its flexibility to easily be used in nearly any subject! Using high-resistance switching to detect connections (even materials that aren't very conductive) allows you to hook up all kinds of fun things as an input for your Scratch based programs. |
 |
Our Deluxe Kit for Makey Makey provides you with everything your students need to create fun and amazing projects whatever the size! |
 |
Our Makey Makey with Conductive Kit is a great way for expanding the available conductivity options of the Makey Makey increasing the ways in which students can create fun and interactive projects. |
The Edison robot is a powerful, engaging tool for teaching children computational thinking and computer programming in a hands-on way. It can be programmed through barcodes, block programming allowing students to advance onto the text-based language Python, making Edison a complete STEM teaching resource for coding and robotics education for students from 4 to 16 years of age.
 |
Edison is a programmable robot designed to be a complete STEM teaching resource for coding and robotics education for students from 4 to 16 years of age. A powerful and engaging tool for teaching children computational thinking and computer programming in a hands-on way. |
 |
Take your Edison EdVenture into coding and robotics to the next level with the Edison Robot Creator Kit. This 5-in-1 expansion pack construction system is designed to work with the Edison robot. Each kit consists of 115 interlocking building blocks, pegs, gears, and other parts. |
The Maker UNO is an Arduino based development board with a range of additions that make it the perfect board for education and learning to code. With the Maker UNO, you can spend less time worrying about wiring and more time coding, this board has 12 built-in LEDs, a Piezo Buzzer, a programmable button which will allow students to get them lighting up and playing music in next to no time!
 |
The Maker UNO - Educational Kit is an Arduino based kit with a range of additional components that make it the perfect kit for education and learning to code. |
 |
Inventors Kit for Arduino (Maker Uno Compatible) The Kitronik Inventor's Kit for Arduino is a great way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the Arduino based programming. Containing all the parts you need, you don't need any experience with programming as the included tutorial book will guide you every step of the way. |
Bring something new and fun to your lessons with the Circuit Scribe conductive Inks. Turn any surface a rollerball pen can draw on into a working circuit with the Circuit Scribe range, its conductive silver ink makes creating circuits as easy as doodling removing the need for messy wiring.
 |
This is a rollerball pen that writes with conductive silver ink. It makes creating circuits as easy as doodling. You can use a Circuit Scribe pen to draw lines on any simple piece of paper, then attach special electrical components (Circuit Scribe modules) on the drawn lines which allow the electrical current to run through the components. This replaces the use of breadboards and wires. |
 |
The Circuit Scribe Mini Kit is an accessible introduction to electronics featuring a compact version of the conductive ink pen. This affordable mini circuit kit guides you along exploration of basic circuit concepts by drawing conductive doodles & creating paper-based switches with a mini ink pen. |
 |
The Intro Classroom Kit is the perfect way to introduce electronics to your classroom or maker space. Geared toward younger students and more basic classes, the kit includes 25 sets of pens and modules to draw basic working circuits that use power, LEDs, and switches. |
 |
Let your learners dig into their creative side while learning advanced electronics concepts making it brilliant for STEM. The Everything Classroom Kit is a great way to dive into electronics in your classroom or maker space. This kit includes 25 sets of pens and modules to draw a wide variety of working circuits that use light, motion, and sound. |
