VEX Robotics for Primary Level
VEX Robotics provide educational robotics for all age groups and skill levels, encouraging creativity, teamwork and problem solving using science and engineering principles. VEX provides both formal and informal training, allowing educators and students alike to learn at their own pace and build practical learning into their curriculums as they see fit.
VEX 123 (ages 4+) and VEX Go (ages 8+) are both ideal solutions for introducing STEM ideas by tapping into the students' natural inquisitiveness.
VEX IQ (ages 11+) develops these learnings further, allowing students to build interactive robots and enjoy competitions amongst their age groups.
The VEX IQ Robotics Competition is designed for Primary and Post-Primary students up to age 15 to compete with their teams in local, regional, national and world competitions.
- More than 8,500 teams from 45 countries playing in over 900 tournaments
- Teamwork Challenge: Two teams working together to maximise their score
- Robot Skills Challenge: One robot playing alone against the clock
- STEM Research Project: Students use the scientific method to research and solve a challenge
