Activities For Primary Schools And Transition


Recent Government policies emphasis the need for teachers to deliver a varied programme of engaging activities that develops learner interest in STEM subjects: Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.

 Staffordshire STEM Chemistry Activity

Staffordshire STEM Centre offers an extensive range of Enrichment Programmes that enhance the student learning experience. Our team of specialists are in the ideal position to help your school deliver activities and projects that enrich and complement curriculum planning and meet the needs of specific ability groups. 

 

We can help you setup Afterschool Clubs, locate a STEM Ambassador, and link with Industry. We are available to discuss any ideas or particular requirements your school may have. You can contact us online or by phone on 01785 353348. 

 

Delivery

Most of our specially designed programmes are delivered within specific timescales by a member of our team. For some projects, we provide the resources and support necessary for effective teacher delivery. Some activities are flexible enough to give teachers a choice of delivery.
