Polar Explorer Programme
Polar explorer
This selection of resources were created as part of the Polar Explorer programme in 2019, funded by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy and managed by STEM Learning Ltd. The aim of the programme was to highlight the commissioning and building of the polar research ship RRS Sir David Attenborough and Boaty McBoatface, its automated submersible.
The resources provide activities and guidance to support schools to enrich the teaching of STEM subjects, by using the context of the construction and launch of the ship, and of polar science.
More details about the programme can be found on the British Antarctic Survey website.

Climate change in the Polar regions
Children will work with hypothetical data to help them understand how mathematics can model real life situations. This will enable them to reflect on how mathematics might be used to help scientists make predictions about the possible impact of climate change in the Polar regions. They will also use real data on...
