In this Future Morph video Suresh Chawla talks about designing, building and moving stage scenery. Suresh explains how working in the theatre challenges him to solve design problems and build useable solutions. He describes how scenery must be light and strong before explaining how some pieces are moved with pulley...

These resources provide careers-related contexts to support teaching of the science and mathematics subject curricula. The materials help students understand the relevance of science and mathematics to a wide range of career routes, many of which they do not necessarily associate with these subjects. The resources...

Empower your learners to consider the causes, effects and solutions of key issues surrounding climate change using this series of lessons.

Introduction to the Grand Challenge resources

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils explore the questions: 'Can machines think?', 'What is intelligence?' and 'What do we mean by artificial intelligence?'

They explore where AI is used, spot patterns, continuing patterns and sequences. They...

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils create a system to send messages using LED signals through fibre optics, look at binary numbers as a form of communication, create a sorting machine that can order numbers and communicate in teams to build shapes and puzzles....

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils investigate Newton’s Third Law by designing, building and racing balloon carts. They also explore what a jet engine is, and how it works, using an explanation of a jet engine to order the parts. They then build their own 3D Trent...

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils explore what we mean by climate change and what greenhouse gases are. They match the molecule diagrams to their descriptions and investigate rising temperature by setting up mini greenhouses. They also explore the lifecycle of an...

In this Future of Flight challenge pupils design a virtual cockpit and learn to think like a pilot, working systematically to move people and medical supplies. They will also create programs to test reaction times, stress levels and check temperature then put together a...
