Bett Award 2026 winner: Busy Things sets the standard for primary digital learning

Busy Things is delighted to announce that it was named a Bett Award 2026 winner last week and took home the award for the Primary Digital Learning Product – Wider Curriculum category.

The award recognises Busy Things’ long-standing commitment to creating high-quality, curriculum-aligned digital resources that support teaching and learning across the primary curriculum. This latest accolade now joins the company’s growing collection of industry awards at Busy Things’ HQ in Derby.

While Busy Things has been recognised several times by Bett before, this award holds particular significance due to the strength of the judges’ endorsement.

Each and every one of the judges selected Busy Things as the winner, despite a highly competitive field of edtech providers. Furthermore, they praised Busy Things not only for its high levels of pupil engagement – which we are most recognised for – but also for setting the standard in curriculum-aligned content. Their comments went on to highlight the platform’s safety, innovation, inclusivity and excellent value for money, key considerations for any school navigating increasingly complex classroom needs and budget pressures.

The team at Busy Things would like to thank the Bett Awards judges, the schools that supported our award entry, and the thousands of primary schools that use Busy Things activities every day.
