We want to enable young people to understand what it is to be a scientist and to encourage experimental work and problem solving in schools and colleges to improve understanding of the scientific process. We promote and support good practice in teaching Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and promote STEM for all young people. Our major schools engagement programme includes: Grants to support schools and colleges to enable students, aged 5-18, to carry out investigative science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) projects in partnership with a STEM professional, primarily through the Partnership Grants scheme.
