Nao is increasingly being used in the United Kingdom due to recent changes to the education system relating to the teaching of the core STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects. As part of this, many schools are using Nao as a pathway to introduce robotics to schoolchildren within the current curriculum to highlight the importance robotics will play in the future as well as showing them another potential career path.[14] Nao has also been utilised to provide specialist education support for children with Autism through the Autism Solution for Kids (ASK Nao) programme.[15]
