Digital Schoolhouse and Nintendo UK have officially announced a partnership that will see Nintendo UK become the new lead partner.
Digital Schoolhouse’s mission is to deliver play-based learning to a projected 32,000 pupils this academic year, and the not-for-profit now has a major brand to partner with them to reach that goal.
“Nintendo UK is extremely excited to be working together with Ukie’s Digital Schoolhouse as lead partner” Kalpesh Tailor, Head of Communications at Nintendo UK said, according to a press release.
“The Digital Schoolhouse programme uniquely combines computing, fun, creativity and innovation, all of which are synonymous and at the heart of Nintendo’s values. Through this collaborative partnership, we aim to reach more teachers and pupils than ever before, in order to help inspire the next generation of young minds across the UK.”
“We’re delighted Nintendo UK has agreed to throw its support behind Digital Schoolhouse” Shahneila Saeed, Director of Digital Schoolhouse said.” DSH has evolved enormously in just three years and their support means we can reach more pupils and teachers than ever with our transformative and inspiring programme. To date, these partnerships have helped DSH achieve national expansion and rapid growth, which is testament to the significant commitment from schools across the country to improve their digital skills provision.”
