About Us

At sciPAD, we believe science education should be engaging, accessible, and relevant. Born in New Zealand and trusted by thousands of schools nationwide, sciPAD workbooks are now making their way to Australia, bringing with them a fresh, student-friendly approach to science learning.

Our Story

sciPAD was created by a team of passionate science educators who saw a need for better classroom resources that truly support students and teachers. What started as a single workbook has grown into a comprehensive suite of academic tools used by schools across New Zealand. Each sciPAD workbook is designed to align with curriculum standards, promote critical thinking, and make science meaningful through real-world applications and interactive content.

  • Curriculum-Aligned: Our workbooks are structured to meet curriculum outcomes, ensuring students get the content they need in a format that works.
  • Student-Centred Design: Engaging layouts, clear explanations, and step-by-step scaffolding help students build confidence and understanding.
  • Teacher-Friendly: Time-saving, ready-to-go resources that reduce workload while enhancing classroom impact.
  • Proven Track Record: Used by over 90% of New Zealand secondary schools, sciPAD has become a trusted name in science education.

Bringing sciPAD to Australia

We’re excited to now offer our innovative resources to Australian educators. As we expand, our focus remains on creating quality science materials that support learning at every level. We are working closely with Australian teachers and education experts to ensure our workbooks meet local curriculum needs, while keeping the clarity, depth, and engagement that sciPAD is known for.

Digital and Print, Together

Alongside our print workbooks, we offer sciPAD Online, a companion digital platform packed with interactive activities, virtual experiments, and automatic feedback. It’s a powerful blend of hands-on and high-tech learning.
