Interactive Learning That Actually Sticks

Absolutely. No two settings are the same, and the training reflects that. Before we start I'll ask you about your year groups, your subjects, your team's confidence with technology and what you're hoping to achieve. The session structure stays consistent, but the examples, the games we explore and the content you build in sessions 2 and 3 will all be shaped around what's actually useful for you.

Yes — and this is actually where it started. Active Floor was originally designed with neurodiverse learners in mind, particularly autistic children, and the evidence behind it in that context is strong. The physical, multisensory nature of the floor removes a lot of the barriers that traditional learning environments create. But here's the thing — it turns out it's brilliant for all children. Big ones, small ones, reluctant learners, enthusiastic ones. Once you've seen a room full of kids on that floor, you'll understand why.

Pretty much anything. Literacy, numeracy, science, geography, PSHE, languages, PE — if you can turn it into a game or a question, it works on the floor. In sessions 2 and 3 you'll build content around your own curriculum, so whatever you teach, we'll make it relevant.

Not at all. The training is designed to take you from wherever you are right now. Whether your team are confident with technology or deeply sceptical of it, we'll go at the right pace. The pre-session questionnaire helps me understand your group's starting point so I can pitch the sessions accordingly.

Once you're familiar with the kit — which session 1 covers — setup is quick. Most schools are up and running in under ten minutes. We'll also cover a few common troubleshooting tips so you're not caught out if something doesn't behave on the day.

Yes — multiple users can have accounts at different access levels (admin, facilitator and so on). Before session 1 I'll ask you to confirm who needs access and at what level so everything is set up and ready to go.

Get in touch. I offer follow-up support, refresher sessions for new staff, and bespoke content design if you need games building but don't have the capacity to do it yourselves. You'll find all of that on this page, and there's a contact form below for any questions that come up along the way.

Active Floor is a significant piece of kit, and training is what makes it worth it. Schools that use the floor without proper training often find it sitting in a corner gathering dust within a few months. These sessions are designed to make sure that doesn't happen — so that the floor gets used, the children benefit, and the investment pays off.

This is the right question to ask — and the honest answer is that the training is where you make the investment, so that everything after it is quick.

Teachers who jump into Active Floor without proper training often spend ages hunting for the right content, rebuilding things from scratch, or simply not using the floor as much as they'd like because it feels like extra work. The three sessions are specifically designed to prevent that. By the end you'll know how to find and load content in minutes, build a new game in a fraction of the time it would take without training, and — crucially — you won't be starting from zero every time.

Here's what makes it genuinely time-efficient once you're up and running: games can be shared across your whole team, so one person's brilliant history quiz becomes everyone's. You can save and reuse templates so you're not rebuilding the structure each time. And there are ready-made game suites you can take and adapt rather than creating from scratch — think of it as a staffroom resource bank that lives on the floor.

Put the time in upfront. You'll get it back many times over.
