The mobile learning space for impactful street work

Transportable blackboard on wheels

Our Mobile School is a mobile educational outreach tool. Pull the cart to your target area, place it on a pavement or in an open space, slide open the telescopic boards, and create up to 12 metres of educational space, right where you need it.

Street proof materials

All the components of the mobile school are fully adapted to the rough reality of the streets. Thanks to the weather resistant, stainless and theft-proof materials, no terrain is inaccessible to your creative street work interventions.

Innovative game mechanics

Game mechanics such as a rotation disc, sliding door system, and puppetry window create an engaging, playful learning environment. Built-in self-control systems support independent learning, while 260+ colourful panels help you inspire and manage large groups.

Adapted to your local context

All content is translated into the local language and tailored to the cultural context, ensuring it resonates with the children and young people you work with.

Hands-on training modules

Join regular on-site training and coaching sessions to keep your team motivated and ready for street outreach. These sessions cover practical use of the Mobile School while strengthening your team. Ongoing support is provided by a dedicated StreetSmart coordinator throughout the partnership.
