About LEGO Education
Today's students will enter a world of untold possibility and potential. Not only must they master digital skills to thrive in the future, but they also need the confidence to navigate the unknown and respond to frequent change.
Based on the LEGO brick and carefully designed lesson plans, LEGO Education offers hands-on, playful, and educational STEAM experiences for students in early learning, primary, and secondary education as well as afterschool programs and competitions.
Studies show that hands-on learning is the best way educators can develop their students’ confidence – and LEGO Education’s comprehensive cross-curricular solutions are designed to do just that.

Building Confidence
- Confidence is believing in your ability to do your best to accomplish something. It’s being comfortable with trying something you’ve never done before.
- Confidence is being willing to explore and take risks. It’s the ability to try something new without being fully aware of the outcome, to embrace the process of learning.
- Confidence is knowing that failure is a part of learning. It’s being willing to get out there and try, putting ideas on the line, believing in yourself, and knowing that you’re capable of achieving your goals.
