Name of UK Tech Initiative?

Hi all,

I seem to recall that in the last year or so, there was a UK STEM 
initiative to introduce programming in the schools but I've lost the link 
and was wondering if any of you possibly had it?

I usually have a small part of one assignment for my students involving 
making them aware of open source software, but was thinking I could 
utilize the kickstart initiative as a more intensive course experience and 
have already shared the kickstart page and one of the RunRev videos (for 
the 4 or 5 CS majors) on the one line of LC code versus 9 of JS.

It could be made larger still if I could figure out what happened to the 
30 free trial version and show them how to make some simple stack(s) and 
then have them discuss the role of programming in education and have them 
reflect on their experiences using LC.

So, I guess I'm looking for two things:

1.  The link on the UK taking programming in education seriously 
initiative; and

2.  If and where the 30-day free trial went (link).

Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Judy
