Here at The STEM Workshop we are passionate about ensuring that all children access a broad curriculum offer regardless of the resources available to them within their school or community.
Our Ethos
Our workshops are designed to nurture children’s inner creative thinking. We provide safe, supportive environments for children to explore, innovate, take risks and problem solve.
We connect the learning from across Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths and link to wider learning opportunities. Offering experiences that are fun, exciting, memorable and support in raising children’s aspirations. Their thinking will be challenged so that they can be the innovators of tomorrow and take their learning beyond the classroom.
