Hi Stephen, I teach Maths at a FE college, have general interest in programming especially Python and would be more than happy to help. The only downside is I don't have access to a microbit, it's hard to get hold of one. I used it briefly during microbit training sessions with STEMNET, so I may be able to provide some ideas!
Thanks.
