Specialist STEM Workshops For Schools

Thinkers in Education offer a range of highly focussed, finely honed 1-5 day workshops to be delivered within the host school or university. Our unique Space Exploration, CSI Forensics and Crisis Management themed workshops allow you to introduce the latest, genuinely exciting, equipment and techniques in ways you may not have been able to explore or afford before.

All workshops have exciting movie-like scenarios and game-like challenges to maximise engagement. All are structured to enrich and extend curriculum content. All develop higher order thinking skills and ensure learning is a result of problem solving. All offer an effective way to review highly successful teaching and learning strategies in action.

Benefits Of Hosting A Workshop

Our lead presenters will assess your pupils throughout the workshop to adapt the pace, challenge level, content and questioning style. We are one of the few organisations able to offer truly specialised workshops for high ability students together with workshops developing higher order thinking skills for all.

We celebrate your students' achievements and include medals, certificates and team prizes. We can also provide a performance report for each participant at the end of the workshop and return student evaluations to the school to help with your assessment of the workshop hosted.

The immediate benefit for schools hosting our programmes is that students will motivated by an extraordinary experience - that will make an impact on their perception of learning and of STEM subjects in the future.  Our activities ensure your targets for STEM and Gifted & Talented provision are easily met.

The long-term benefit is that teachers have an opportunity to observe and discuss an array of effective questioning techniques, activity designs and assessment strategies.  Our style of provision can be adapted and applied to everyday lessons as part of the school development plan.

Our aim is to motivate students and inspire teachers with learning that is fascinating, challenging and relevant.
