Learning to solve problems
Challenging young people to apply their imagination & skills to the world around them
Award winning learning programmes for universities and schools
Equally relevant to design, engineering, STEM/STEAM and D&T
A 21st century mix of creativity, technical skills and social values
Our award-winning free programme runs in schools and universities in the UK and internationally. Working in teams Fixperts learn to develop skills in empathy, problem-solving and communications.
Engaging workshops, day camps and week-long courses assume that young people aged 9-14 hold the solutions to the problems of tomorrow. A hands-on brains-on experience using anything from sticks to drones.
Why fixing?
Fixing is a valuable way to think about change in the world – everyone can relate to ideas about repair and improvement.
We don’t care if they consider themselves designers, engineers, artists, technologists or simply dreamers, our approach is proven to engage and equip young learners to use their imagination and skills to make things better.
