Micro:bit Educational Foundation

We are a UK-based not-for-profit organisation with the global vision of inspiring every child to create their best digital future. We are enabling children around the world to get creative with technology and invent in school, in clubs and at home! Our first year has shown that the BBC micro:bit encourages a higher percentage of girls to learn about technology. Our mission in The Foundation is to take the hardware, and the magical end-to-end experience provided by the online micro:bit editors and make it available around the rest of the world.

We are part of a diverse, global micro:bit community of young people, teachers, and parents who value effective collaboration. We are committed to understanding and defining the technology education sector to present micro:bit users with a stable, tested release of all the things you need to make the unique and productive ‘end-to-end’ micro:bit experience.

One of the greatest benefits of working at micro:bit is knowing that the work you're doing is contributing to something positive, constructive and with beneficial social outcomes.

We’re a small organisation with a large global audience and reach. We thrive on creative problem solving and are open to new ideas and solutions. This gives everyone the chance to have enormous impact, as well as ensuring that your days will be diverse and the challenges complex.
