Some of Our Testimonials
“I just wanted to say thank you so much Cheryl and to all the teachers because its been really, really great. I think its given the kids, I know with [my son], so much confidence in their ability to come up with inventive ideas in their creativity to trust in that and be given some support and encouragement with that. I would never ever have imagined when we joined that he would be able to confidently tackle a presentation like this and its really, really helped incredibly. And I’ve seen with his drawing and his sense of perspective and just confidence in his own abilities it’s just enormously improved, so I just want to say thank you so much I think its a really great project that you’re doing.”
E Fullerton, London Parent of young person with Dyspraxia who successfully completed Archimake Level 1 Certificate national qualification, equivalent to GCSE at first attempt.
"Overall, having engaged in the tasks outlined by Archimake and inspired by their contextual studies, children presented a wide-depth of knowledge and a diversity of ideas that reflected sustainable thinking, a concern for societal issues such as poverty, climate change and the environment, saving energy, rising housing cost. These ideas have the potential to be explored further and this is something Archimake could undertake with students returning to them in following terms. What was remarkable also was their self-reliance, confidence, and technological and verbal command. While some presentations relied on material explorations with a more hands-on approach, others employed modelling software and gaming technology such as Minecraft; either way all children presented their work with utmost professionalism"
P. Sinha, Cambridge University
In my opinion, what was crucial to, and led to the eventual success of, the project were four defining aspects of Archimake’s planning and teaching: a) the gradual advancement of tasks, over every week; b) building a holistic understanding of architecture and children’s capacity for analysing, drawing, structural detailing, representation and presentation; c) the platform to express themselves verbally, textually, practically and technologically in consultation with their peer and tutors; and d) a transdisciplinary space for children to embody their aesthetic, affective, architectural and socially-responsive learnings."
