LEGO® Education is committed to providing educators with the best products and services possible, and as part of this commitment, we are making some changes to our portfolio.

After careful consideration, we have made the decision to retire the SPIKE portfolio, including LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Essential and LEGO Education SPIKE™ Prime.
 
While LEGO Education sales will be concluding, we want to reassure you that the SPIKE products remain valuable tools for your classroom, summer programs, and after-school activities. You can continue to confidently teach STEAM skills and concepts with SPIKE, and the SPIKE App will continue to be supported until 30 June 2031.

As the head of Product Experience at LEGO® Education, I personally want to thank you for engaging so many students with our SPIKE™ portfolio.
 
My team and I dedicate years of work to designing, developing, and testing our products for the ultimate purpose of getting them into the hands of students. Because of this, it is always a bittersweet moment for our team when we retire a product too.
 
We are known for our commitment to delivering exceptional product quality that stands the test of time. This focus on quality means that our products not only meet but exceed industry standards for safety and long-lasting durability. In fact, many of our legacy LEGO Education solutions continue to be utilised in schools today, showcasing both the lasting value we provide and the trust schools place when investing in our offerings.
 
Your satisfaction and trust in our products are our top priorities, and we strive to uphold these values in everything we do.
 
Thank you for inspiring students around the world through learning and play with LEGO Education!
 
Andrew Sliwinski,
Head of Product Experience

Software support

After company sales conclude, LEGO® Education will support the SPIKE™ App for five years, until 30 June 2031.
 
During this five-year period, we will continue to fix bugs and support the latest versions of supported operating systems, including MacOS, Windows, Chromebook, Android, and iOS.
 
After 30 June 2031, while the software will still be available online, it will no longer receive updates or bug fixes. This means it might become incompatible with new operating systems released at any point after June 2031.
