Stage III was the last part of the Nuffield Chemistry Sample Scheme for O-level Chemistry. It was designed to give students the opportunity to apply the skills and ideas they had met in Stages I and II to a number of selected fields of study. At O-level each student was...

The STFC Lunar Rocks and Meteorites Loan Scheme has been running since the mid 1980s. It has lent the NASA Moon rock discs and meteorites to thousands of schools, museums and outreach organisers. The collection has been produced by the ASE with the University of Manchester, Millgate House Education, the Natural...

This collection includes a series of themed activities and resources suitable for use in STEM clubs.  

In addition, it includes an example of a STEM club scheme of work from Dagenham Park School, as well as a template suitable for use when planning activities for your own STEM club.

This is a multi-lesson integrated classroom project based around the theme of the Vikings, allowing design and technology and engineering to be built into a wider theme-based set of primary lesson activities, covering a range of curriculum areas. Activities can be selected as stand-alone tasks, or learners can...

The Frederick Bremer School used three days during the summer term ‘off timetable’ week for this project which included a day visit to King’s Cross Station with a STEM Ambassador from Transport for London (TfL). The visit provided students with insight into the issues and ideas regarding the redevelopment...

A scheme of work produced as optional guidance from the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) to support the teaching of science at Key Stage Three (students aged 11-14), and intended to cover all the requirements of the 2000 National Curriculum programme of study.

Stage III was the last part of the Nuffield Chemistry Sample Scheme which was intended to give students opportunities for applying skills and ideas met in Stages I and II to a number of selected fields of study. Teachers were expected to choose options to suit the abilities and interests of the students in their...

The Nuffield Science Teaching Project produced a Sample Scheme in the 1960s to 1970s to illustrate a new approach to lesson sequences. The scheme included details of suggested experiments and advice to teachers regarding handling class discussions and setting homework.

The scheme acted as a stimulus to...

This case study describes how Priestley College promotes STEM subjects and careers to girls, through involvement in the Engineering Education Scheme (EES). The scheme, run by EDT, lasts six months and offers hands on experience for a group of four year twelve students who are studying maths and physics/chemistry....

This STEM club resource, from Dagenham Park School, provides instructions on how to create a "Brushbot"- a simple robot made from a toothbrush and a micro vibration motor.

The resource includes a suggested risk assessment, a step by step guide for students, pictures of the activity in action and a shopping...

These resources, provided by The AstraZeneca Science Teaching Trust, include materials produced as part of The Cambridgeshire SEN Science Project which brought together a group of special schools and developed a scheme of work and an assessment/recording framework for science.

These STRATA (Science To Raise...

Produced by the Learning Skills Improvement Service, these materials help to demonstrate effective practice. By Cambridge Regional College, this case study looks at the themes of functional skills, equality, engineering and mathematics.

The aim of the project was to work with staff to raise awareness of the...
