Intervention groups – In partnership with the Newcastle Futures University Technical College, we have been delivering challenging, thought-provoking real-world STEM projects for their students.

Science Week Takeover – At Excelsior Academy Rainbird Primary School we supported a Science Week Takeover.

CREST Awards – Supporting students towards the British Science Association Awards, we have been helping partner school students to gain independence in applying scientific approaches to problems and challenges. We are working with Beamish Museum on a 1950s Radio Project that requires problem solving and investigation in a real-life, historical context.
Real Life Physics – At Benfield School and at Studio West Academy in Denton, we have delivered practical projects to enable students to learn through research, design, build and evaluation cycles.
Teacher CPD – At Berwick Academy, we have been directly supporting staff with specialisms in other areas of the curriculum, to teach Physics. This has been through face-to-face and remote provision.
“The children have gained invaluable experience throughout this project and it has had such a positive impact... The passion and enthusiasm for their work has been great and to see the children work as a team, communicate and support one another: this is such a rarity for these children due to the life they have outside of school, so thank you!”
– Rainbird Primary School
Curriculum Development – We have collaborated with a local Primary school in reviewing and re-launching their Science Curriculum and worked with a secondary Academy on their A Level Physics provision.
