British Science Week, run by the British Science Association, is a ten-day celebration of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths (8^th-17^th March). Students and education professionals are encouraged to produce and participate in STEM events and activities to learn about the variety that STEM subjects offer.

 

Their ‘Smashing Stereotypes’ campaign inspires individuals, from all backgrounds and career paths, to see themselves as scientists and realise STEM isn’t just about lab coats and goggles!

 

At The Great British School Trip, we’re always aiming for young people to step out of their comfort zones and realise their full potential inside and outside of the classroom. Stereotypes and a lack of opportunity can often get in the way of young people entering STEM careers, but through our fantastic range of trip venues we want to showcase the many ways in which young people can become involved in STEM and learn valuable new skills on the way.

 

Our curriculum-based resources have been expertly designed to further learning and unlock student creativity. Check out our Breakthroughs and Discoveries resources and venues which have a STEM focus. Unleash your inner scientist and choose from: Aberdeen Science Centre, Magna Science Adventure, Oxford University Museum of Natural History or Royal College of Physicians (to name a few!)
