We welcome around 100 school and college groups from across the UK each year to be part of Summer Science, and in 2021 we are looking forward to doing the same as part of our online Schools programme.
The booking contact will be sent essential information in advance about the sessions and workshops. The Zoom link needed to attend will be sent out at least a week before the session, and again just before. All this information will be sent via email from Eventbrite.
If the booking contact is not the person who will be with the students during the event (referred to as the lead teacher) they must ensure that the essential information in these emails is forwarded to the lead teacher in advance.
Key and specific information about the Schools programme is available on our website now, via the links below, including details of the Meet the researchers sessions and Workshops for 7-14 year olds. The information on these pages should be used by the lead teacher to conduct their own risk assessment of the session before taking part with their class as they will be responsible for their students safety on the day.
