Teaching Future Proof Skills
In-person and online STEM workshops for primary schools
Engage and inspire your pupils with science, engineering and maths concepts through practical, hands-on activities.
They'll also have chance to develop future proof skills like problem solving, creativity and collaboration too.
“Sometimes when external companies come in you worry that the kids won't be fully engaged by them as they aren't necessarily 'natural teachers'. However, having Susie who has worked as a teacher before, she knew exactly how to hook them. The pupils absolutely loved it."
- Miss Kershaw, Spinfield Primary
