Twig Education (now Imagine Learning Studios UK)

Following the incredible success of the Twig Science program in the US, Twig Education was acquired by Imagine Learning, the largest provider of digital curriculum solutions in the US, and rebranded as Imagine Learning Studios. The change allows us to invest more in our product and push ahead with ambitious plans to further expand across the US. There is no change to the name Twig Science, which is a key part of Imagine Learning's offering. As Imagine Learning Studios, we will continue to produce comprehensive, engaging multimedia learning experiences for students for an expanded range of subjects, now including mathematics (Imagine Learning Illustrative Mathematics) and ELA (Imagine Learning EL Education). Founded in 2009 as Twig World, Twig Education was the parent company for the US product family of Twig Science, Twig Science Tools, and Twig Science Reporter; the Rest of World product family of Twig, Tigtag, Tigtag Junior; and the Reach Out product family of Reach Out CPD and Reach Out Reporter.
