A team of Year 7 students from King Edward VI Handsworth School for Girls have been announced as winners of the 2020/21 Pupil Design Awards.

Their winning concept, Learning Ninja, is an app and card game which enables primary-aged pupils to easily access work remotely. It contains fun, educational games and options for pupils to find tutors. Parents can also access their own version of the app to support their children with the ninja mascot encouraging and challenging pupils on their educational journey.
Judges were particularly impressed by the level of research conducted, with one commenting how moving it was, demonstrating excellent empathy for service users facing the issue of the digital divide.
