After-School Clubs
Weekly clubs for primary school pupils
Join a Club
With so much uncertainty around the return to school in September, we're offering clubs your children can join from home or from school.
​
We expect to have two options for you from September:
1. Weekly clubs running online from 4pm after children get home from school.
2. Online pre-recorded clubs for schools to implement easily and safely with their own staff members as facilitators.
​
At our after-school clubs children engage in projects from science, technology, engineering and design. We focus on encouraging problem solving and creativity with open-ended hands-on tasks.
​
Sign up here to receive updates when we launch our new after-school clubs.
If you are interested in hosting an after-school club at your school, or you'd like to recommend Inventors & Makers to your child's school, please get in touch.

A. Odhavji, parent
A brilliant and much needed concept for young children to explore their creative genius! Just wish this was part of school life for all children.
F. Sandford, parent
My children had an amazing time and are desperate to do it another time. Also it seems to have achieved the miracle of tiring them out, something not many activities have achieved!
S. Grewal, parent
My son came home fizzing with excitement. He said he'd had a brilliant time and from all his chatting I could see he had learned a lot too. We can't wait for more courses. Highly recommended!!
