stem outreach

Demonstrating STEM principles at all ages

STEM outreach teams can deliver an exciting programme of activities inspiring young learners in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

By creating activities for both pre-16 and post-16 learners to encourage exploration and understanding of life as a STEM student at university and the real-world applications of STEM subjects.

delivering curriculum

Sparking passion for STEM subjects

The use of LEGO increases the tactile and kinaesthetic aspects of the learning experience and helps to make abstract concepts more concrete. Students can execute and create programs, whilst giving lecturers the ability to demonstrate fundamental and more advanced concepts.

By introducing practical elements into lessons with robotics, allows pupils to see results more clearly, and understand the effects of the codes they write.
