Espresso Primary wins the BETT Award for Early Years Solutions!
16th January 2009
Espresso Education is delighted to announce that we have won another key award – the BETT Award for Early Years Solutions. This marks the fifth BETT Award for the Espresso Primary service.
The BETT 2009 judges’ citation reads:
"It has good production quality and a vast range of age appropriate resources and activities for Foundation, 1 and 2. It is easy to navigate and intuitive for teacher and learner. The judges really liked the fact that the resource is continually developing and has a clear focus on contemporary and global features, for example, the weekly news bulletin and the helpful link to websites. Judges liked the range of visual stimulus including photos, artwork and video as well as excellent audio quality. The curricular links to the early learning goals are clear and offer a time-saving feature that is critical in any good classroom resource. The community feature offers good potential for supportive networking."
We are particularly pleased with this year's award as it recognises the enormous amount of thought, development and progression which has gone specifically into our Foundation Stage resources over the last few years. It also reinforces our commitment to early learners, and the importance of stimulating and engaging children with ICT from a young age.
