The science calendar
The dates schools book science for
Four fixed points in the school year that carry a whole day of science on their own. Each one has a set of workshops built to suit it, the same facilitator-led format, and the same paperwork in your inbox the day you book.
Four dates
Pick the moment, then the science
Science Week in March fills first and is usually gone a term ahead. The other three are shorter, fixed and far easier to plan around.

3 workshops for this dateHow a date-led booking works
From enquiry to the day itself
Most science leads come to us with a date in mind and no fixed idea of the workshop. That is the right way round.
- 01
Start with the date
Tell us the day you want to mark and how many classes need to take part. If the date is already full we will say so straight away and offer the nearest week that is not.
- 02
Match the workshops to your topics
Each date has workshops that fit it naturally, but the choice is yours. Science leads often pick one workshop for the whole school, or two running side by side in separate spaces.
- 03
Confirm, and the paperwork follows
Your risk assessment, insurance certificate and facilitator DBS details are emailed to the school office on confirmation, so your admin team has everything on file without chasing.
- 04
We arrive set up and ready
Your facilitator unloads, tests every headset on our own network and is ready before the first bell. Classes rotate through around your assemblies and lunch sittings.
