Last week was quite a week here at The Workshop. After the high of winning two Cream awards on Thursday, we picked up award number three on Friday night from DADI in Leeds, Best Public Sector Website for Diploma Support.

Diploma Support was one of The Workshop’s biggest-ever projects: four industry partners (including the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust, Pearson and LSN), a multimillion-pound budget and a delivery team of more than 50 people. We won the contract in 2008 from the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) to deliver a comprehensive package of Diploma training events, consultancy, publications and online support to teachers.

A selection of our work for BBC jam

It’s been a long journey, but we’re delighted that some of the wonderful work we did for BBC jam back in 2007 has finally reached its rightful destination on the BBC website. We brought exciting educational content to life through design, animation and development for Key Stage 1 Welsh, Key Stage 2 Science and Key Stage 3 French.

The material has now been versioned into Welsh and is being used on the BBC Wales website as part of their learning offer for young Welsh learners. Much of the work we did on these projects involved creating immersive ‘worlds’ from which to launch interactive content. Originally we worked closely with the BBC in the early days of Jam to research and consult on the shape of the service.
