EPro8 Classroom Week
The EPro8 Classroom Week is a week long STEAM programme for the whole of your classroom.

The EPro8 Classroom Week includes:
  • Loan of six extra sets of EPro8 School Equipment - so a whole classroom of your students can take part at the same time
  • A week long intensive STEAM curriculum
  • 32 EPro8 Workbooks - one for each of your students
  • Includes reading, writing and practical maths elements
  • Access to online resources
  • A teacher's manual to guide you through the week
  • The week culminates in an EPro8 Internal Event
Classroom Lot of Equipment
We will loan an additional six sets of EPro8 School Equipment.  If your school already owns one set of EPro8 School Equipment, you will now have seven sets to use for the week.  This is enough equipment for 28 students.

For schools that already own a classroom lot of EPro8 School Equipment then the EPro8 Classroom Week is provided at a reduced price (as this option does not include loaning extra equipment).   And since you own your own equipment then the "week" doesn't need to be completed in one week.  You can spread the programme however it best suits your school.
Week Long STEAM Curriculum
Put your usual classroom activities aside for a week, and spend a rewarding week focused on STEAM learning.  Modules include the practical application of students' reading, writing and practical mathematics.
The week long programme is structured to be easy for teachers.

The curriculum ties together a number of our existing activities, with extra resources, in a logical week long programme.

Finish the week with an EPro8 Internal Event complete with live scoring.
