Celebrate British Science Week 2025 – strengthen your science curriculum

British Science Week 2025 is finally here, taking place from Friday 7 to Sunday 16 March. This annual celebration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) offers the perfect opportunity for schools to inspire young minds and nurture a love for scientific exploration. This year's theme, 'Change and adapt,' encourages students to explore the dynamic nature of the world around them.

To support you in bringing this theme to life, the British Science Association has released free activity packs tailored for various age groups, from under 5s to age 14. These packs are filled with engaging activities that make complex scientific concepts accessible and fun. They also include information on how to incorporate CREST Awards into your plans, providing a structured way to recognise students' achievements in STEM.

At The Education People, we are committed to supporting schools in delivering high-quality primary science education. Our comprehensive Primary Science Scheme of Work is designed to ignite a passion for science among learners. This scheme includes downloadable curriculum-aligned units, interactive quizzes, integrated assessments, a comprehensive handbook, and pre-designed slide templates. Developed by education experts, it’s a one-time purchase for your entire school - no subscription needed!

If you would like to find out more about the scheme of work, and how it can be applied in the classroom, join our upcoming free online training on 26 June 2025.

The Education People also offer Primary Science Support, where one of our expert improvement advisers will work with your science lead to raise standards across the school. This support includes practical sessions on improving students' ability to 'work scientifically,' advice on developing science assessments, strategies for enhancing planning and recording, and information on a range of resources, equipment, and learning spaces.

To bring science to life in the classroom, explore the KCS Primary Science range.
