Technology Triumphs

Technology Triumphs is a distance learning based service and exam centre, founded by qualified  DT teacher and home educating mum, Pip Rothwell. All provisions were designed specificaly for home educated learners.

IN 2018, whilst tutoring a small number of home educating learners, Pip realised that there was a distinct lack of opportunites to achieve formal qualifications in practical and creative subjects outside of a school or college setting.

Technology Triumphs established in October 2018 in order to ;

"Make creative learning more accessible to all."

We recognise that achieving qualifications as a home educating family can prove costly. This, alongide the current financial climate has resulted in us looking at other ways that we can help the home educating community.
Via our Facebook page, we now fund some courses for home educated learners. You do not need to be a previous or current Technology Triumphs learner to access these provisions.

These fun live events are planned as half termly courses in various subjects and are offered completely free.
If you can't make the actual live event, the FB live will stay on our page for you to watch in your own time.

Additional resources like worksheets are also provided onour pages, to be used alongside the live event.
