OitCs School programme returns

Community

Ospreys in the Community are delighted to announce that our TRY PI Schools Programme is back in time for the new term, in partnership with SONY UK Technology Centre.

Last year, 40 schools signed up with 1563 children taking part across two programmes. We delivered to 57 key stage two classes both remotely and through classrooms across primary schools.

In previous years, word has spread throughout the education community in Ospreylia about the benefits of participating in the programme leading to places being snapped up instantly. But after adapting our programme to be delivered remotely, we were able to offer the programme to more schools and reach those further afield.

“I’ve enjoyed everything about the programme. The games were very fun to play, and I wouldn't want to change anything about it!”

Pupils on the programme are treated to an exclusive behind the scenes tour of the Swansea.com bringing the thrill of a matchday direct to your classroom. Along with an interactive virtual tour of Sony’s factory to see the latest technology.                  

Covering the new curriculum areas, we’ve ensured Literacy, Numeracy and Digital competences are at the heart of the programme. The initiative is not something extra that has to be delivered by teachers or schools but can fit in to your current topics and termly plans.
