Our Story

Beehive Supplies is run by Craig and Gwenllian, business partners who also happen to be husband and wife, and parents to three young children. We think that school should be about more than just teaching kids to read and write, and with Beehive Supplies we want to encourage learning through experimentation, exploration and experience - developing the whole child and not just teaching kids how to pass exams.

Craig worked in education for 13 years, working both as a primary school teacher and a secondary school art and design teacher, so we know better than most the value of having the right resources in the classroom. Beehive Supplies was born out of a passion for making teaching exciting as well as affordable, building a community through open communication, trusting relationships and great value.

Value and quality

We know from personal experience that money is hard to come by in schools, so your classroom supplies can’t cost the earth. We also know that they also need to be tough and durable enough to withstand the wear and tear of school life. There’s no point in forking out for a load of teaching supplies if they’ll get broken the first time they’re used!

At Beehive supplies we’ve chosen only the highest quality products with the lowest prices, so you can rest assured that you’re getting the best quality along with the best value for money for your classroom. We’ve only selected teaching supplies that we would personally want in our kids’ classrooms. Basically, if a product has made it to Beehive Supplies, we think it’s the bees knees. 

Building the hive

Beehive Supplies is much more than just an online shop for teaching resources. Together with people like you, we’re building a community of like minded educators with a shared outcome, who believe in keeping kids busy and excited about their learning, helping children to develop both in and out of the classroom.

Craig and Gwenllian are always just a phone call away, and more than happy to answer any questions and offer advice. We want to make the process of getting the teaching supplies you need as efficient as possible, and a big part of that is making sure you can just pick up the phone and have a chat with a real person when you want a bit of help.

We can even have someone pop over to you to help you work out precisely what you need for your classroom, taking all the guesswork out of it and letting you get on with teaching with confidence.
