Supporting Schools in Inspiring the Next Generation

Every pupil deserves the chance to experience learning in new and exciting ways. At CageFlight Education, we support schools in delivering safe, engaging, and curriculum-linked workshops that bring STEM concepts to life through drone flight.

Our programmes are designed for KS2–KS4 learners, with activities adapted to suit different ages and abilities. From simple landing challenges in primary schools to team-based obstacle competitions in secondary settings, each workshop encourages confidence, teamwork, and problem-solving.

With a fully mobile, netted drone arena, DBS-checked instructors, and complete risk assessments, we make it easy for schools to provide a memorable experience that is both safe and educational.

Founder & Director

I founded CageFlight to inspire and educate the next generation through the exciting world of drone technology. With a background in SkyScan Solutions, a professional drone surveying and aerial imaging company, I’ve seen first-hand how drones are transforming industries across the UK.

CageFlight was created to bring that innovation into schools in a safe, engaging, and curriculum-linked way. My goal is to give pupils the opportunity to experience flight, teamwork, and STEM concepts in a hands-on environment that sparks curiosity and builds confidence.
