In today’s rapidly evolving world, where technology permeates every facet of our lives, there is an increasingly urgent need for our learners to acquire skills that will empower them to thrive in the digital age. Coding and Robotics are two of the fastest-growing areas in the technology industry, a combined skill in high demand across a range of sectors. From manufacturing devices and machinery to everyday household equipment and automobiles, coding proficiency has become an indispensable asset for future employment.

It is therefore no longer a question of if but when schools should implement Coding and Robotics as part of their curriculum. The subject presents amazing opportunities to unleash our learners’ true potential: the astounding young talent on display at Resolute’s annual Roboticon events is clear evidence of this.

For Oxford University Press, providing teaching and learning solutions for Coding and Robotics was also no longer a question of if but when – and who. Because the subject requires a balance of theoretical and practical, hands-on learning, the educational publisher’s aim was always to be able to offer a comprehensive solution that encompasses both. As an ed-tech blazing trails across the continent, Resolute Education’s innovative prowess perfectly complements their wealth of publishing experience and educational presence in South Africa. Their partnership brings together a powerful synergy of expertise geared toward equipping the next generation with the tools they need to succeed.

Empowering teachers to confidently deliver Coding and Robotics in the classroom, irrespective of their school’s progress on their digital journey, is of paramount importance to both organisations. The partnership offers an inclusive and adaptable solution, catering to a wide range of classroom needs, and places great emphasis on continuous teacher training and support. 

Equally important is to provide children with as many opportunities as possible to flourish in an ever-evolving technological world.
