“I want to be a scientist!" - Children Challenging Industry

Friday January 10, 2025 08:45 - 09:35 GMT

ESLC B04

Do you want to make science real and relevant, build links with local industries and increase STEM career aspirations? This session will explore why links to real-world contexts are important, as outlined in the EEF's 'Improving Primary Science Guidance Report', and how the Children Challenging Industry programme improves attitudes towards science through connections to the wider curriculum.

This hands-on practical workshop will showcase a variety of free, curriculum-based resources for primary teachers, supporting you to achieve this through the use of industry storylines.
