ClassVR made its RM debut at the RM Starflight Academy 2.0 launch. Hosted at Oakley Vale Primary School in Corby, and led by renowned astronaut teacher Mike Mongo, the event used ClassVR and space-themed resources to create an immersive learning experience and motivate students to aim for the stars. The four-week programme designed by RM Technology and SaxaVord Spaceport provided Year 5 pupils with interactive and inspiring STEAM resources centred around space education.
