Interactive platform
100% digital, gamified, and equipped with a complete classroom management system.
Gamified for students
Students can use the platform to work on the activities, develop their projects, consolidate their knowledge with fun resources, earn points and enjoy many other functionalities that support their learning.
A powerful classroom management tool
The comprehensive and intuitive classroom management system makes it easy for teachers to manage and deliver the classes, regardless of their previous experience. They can create classes and groups, award and remove points and evaluate students using rubrics, among other features. The platform includes a dedicated help section with tutorials, answer keys, lists of competences and objectives for each project, and a teaching guide illustrating the complete learning path for each course.
Age-adapted
The content is tailored to the cognitive and psychomotor skills of each age group.
No need for students to register
Students connect using codes from the teacher.
Attended classes or online
Teachers can combine both options or switch from one to the other whenever they wish.
Integrated tools
You’ll work with Scratch and App Inventor, and directly with Bitbloq on the platform.
Digital content
bMaker School is a flexible itinerary that adapts to the pace of each classroom. The content is structured by level, year group, project and session to ensure sequential learning.
Courses: these ‘adventures’ enable students to complete a learning path.
Projects: built around a common theme and structured content.
Sessions: each takes around 50 minutes and can be completed in one class.

A new adventure every year!
Children learn with fun and motivating activities and themed content. Every course is an adventure (a journey into space, a futuristic challenge…) that develops as the projects unfold. Attractive visual resources give students a first-hand experience and a central role in their own learning.
Classroom materials
Structured by level and adapted to support students’ progress.
Zum Kit Junior
A simple and safe kit for children aged 8 to 12 years. The protective casing on the components keeps them safe from knocks and blows. Modular connectors allow cables to be connected and disconnected easily. Hook-and-loop tape allows students to connect sensors and actuators as they wish. Unlike other kits, with Zum Kit Junior students can create hundreds of different solutions. The only limit is their own creativity.
Zum Kit Advanced
This easy-to-use, resistant and safe kit is suited to children aged 11+. The board components and electronics are visible, meaning students gain more in-depth technical knowledge. This isn’t a game. This is real electronics.
Support throughout
It’s easy to bring bMaker School into your classroom, but our year-round support service makes it even easier. Our team is with you from the start of the school year to provide personal support and address all your queries. Supporting teachers in this way means we can see how their needs change. That’s why bMaker School is constantly evolving to ensure it remains the most useful solution for teachers and students alike.
STEAM + digital competences + computational thinking
With bMaker School, you can work with students on computational thinking, STEAM and digital competences all in one place and in compliance with the LOMLOE. Our creative, practical and inspiring methodology nourishes key power skills for kids’ personal growth and future careers.
STEAM
bMaker School incorporates the STEM disciplines — Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths — with an artistic approach that nourishes kids’ creativity and innovative spirit.
Computational thinking
Computational thinking is the ability to use procedures to analyse and solve problems in a logical and organised way. It’s so much more than programming! With bMaker School, students develop their computational thinking skills through several sequential processes that start off simple and gradually increase in complexity.
How do students develop these competences?
With a methodology based on cooperative project-based learning, the scientific method and Design Thinking.
Through interdisciplinary projects: students put knowledge and skills from various areas of the curriculum into practice.
In alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals and the 2030 Agenda.
