It’s a proven fast and effective way to bring teachers up to speed on the essentials around the digital technologies, while also providing a variety of print and go coding resources.

How it works

Trusted by Teachers

The students in my gifted program wanted to learn to code but I had no experience with it. This booklet has been very easy to work through with them and we’ve all enjoyed it.

Malcom P, Year 6 Teacher

This is an awesome resource! My students have loved engaging with it and it has really helped supported their curriculum knowledge and skill application. I highly recommend it to others!

Ebony R, Year 5 Teacher

Love that this incorpates coding with NZ history. Great resource.

Kristen P, Year 4 Teacher

Used this resource for year 1 and year 2 students! They loved the story it comes with. There aren’t many unplugged coding resources so I’m glad I stumbled on this one.

Aiza M, Year 1/2 Teacher

FAQ’s

What is Launchpad?2023-08-23T17:51:04+12:00

Launchpad is a family run business that aims to train and provide resources for teachers on how to implement Digital Technologies into their classroom routine. We want to encourage children to have the opportunities to become creators within digital technologies and not just users on digital devices.

What does the Early Access membership mean?2023-08-23T17:52:58+12:00

Early Access is essentially our way to get teachers to try out our courses and resources before we launch in January 2024. It’s a limited time only to get all our content at a massively discounted price, and it’s only open for a set amount of teachers. You’ll have access to all our courses for an entire year, along with all future courses we create in that time. You’ll even receive access to all of our classroom resources for FREE!
The purpose of early access is to test our content to a small number of teachers, receive feedback and make changes where necessary. You’ll also be able to have a say in what type of courses you want to see created.

Are the courses for children or teachers?2023-08-11T11:05:49+12:00

Our courses are aimed for teachers rather than children. We want to help train teachers to become confident facilitators within the digital curriculum. We want to help teachers understand how the digital curriculum can be broken down and then taught throughout Elementary and Middle School (Primary and Intermediate), and enable teachers to be confident in what they are teaching and the core coding concepts that they are instilling.

How can I upgrade my free account to a membership?2023-08-23T17:46:46+12:00

That’s awesome you want to upgrade! Simply head to your ‘Dashboard’ and in the account menu select ‘Membership’. From here you will have the option to ‘Upgrade or Change Your Membership’.

What year levels are the courses and resources for?2023-08-23T17:57:37+12:00

New Entrant to Year 6 are where we primarily aim our resource and course content. However, a lot of our Year 5/6 resources would also suit Years 7/8 students.

How do I access the free resources in my membership?2023-08-23T17:58:20+12:00

To claim your resources, simply add the ones you want to your cart and once you are ready head to the checkout. From here, an automatic discount will be applied to ensure that everything is free! Once done, you can download the resource from your dashboard or via an email sent to you.
