Day Four at BETT – what an amazing show!
Scholastic is on stand G40 at BETT!
The last day of the BETT – and what a BETT Scholastic have had!
We have spent the week showing our brand-new digital learning resources at BETT. The reaction to Story Stage, Class PET and Percy Parker has been nothing short of fantastic; to see the highlights of those presentations take a look below.
We have met some amazing people this week, high amongst them are the fantastic teachers who have ‘taken over’ our stand. So our last highlights video of the week is dedicated to the incredible enthusiasm and dedication that every teacher that was part of TeachMeet Takeover!

We are three days into BETT 2010, and what a fun one it was too!
We had the full Percy Parker choir in to perform scenes from the musical. The incredibly talented group of pupils ensured that everyone turned to watch!
We then had the launch party for the Digital Learning Division – and what a party it was! Russ Payne and Tim Meek stood up to present Class PET and Story Stage.
Finally, we were lucky enough to play host again to the TeachMeet Takeover events on the stand. All of them were amazing, amusing and most definitely enthusing!

Next week at BETT, Scholastic will be showing off our best and brightest e-learning resources. BETT 2010 starts on Wednesday 13th of January, with 30,000 visitors expected over four days. We are incredibly proud of the latest resources we are launching, so have pulled out all of the stops to ensure you get the most out of BETT – whether you can make it to the show or not!
Three of the amazing new resources that will be on our stand (G40) include:

- Story Stage is an interactive and highly creative virtual puppet-based literacy resource, featuring ground-breaking multi-mouse functionality to enable groups of primary children to work simultaneously on a single PC.
- The very first Child Education Plus of 2010 has just been published and you will notice a big difference! A brand-new look with thousands of downloadable resources online – it is something not to be missed!
I know that BETT being a show in London, not everyone can attend which is why we will be doing something special this year. Every evening, Scholastic will be posting a video of the days highlights so that you can make sure you keep up-to-date with the developments of the show. And if you follow us on the Scholastic twitter, you will be in the right place for all the latest show offers and giveaways!
Finally, Scholastic are very proud to announce that we will be hosting some TeachMeet Takeover events on our stand at BETT. For those who haven’t heard of TeachMeet, it is where teachers stand up and tell other teachers about practice that makes a difference. It is engaging and inspiring and something that you really won’t want to miss. The full agenda of events is available here. To tempt you to come along, the sponsors of TeachMeet have put together an amazing goody bag worth over £350 for every attendee! See the agenda for more info!
