This STEM resource gives young learners the opportunity to explore how engineering and science work together in the healthcare service. Students are challenged to work collaboratively to develop their curiosity and creativity through a series of fun and engaging activities. 

This challenge provides a STEM activity day in which teams of children work together to design a way of getting lighthouse keepers back to the mainland from a lighthouse...

The activities provided in the Little Inventors collection aim to inspire children to use their imaginations to help them to think up, and draw original, funny, fantastical or practical invention ideas with no limits, to solve a range of perceived problems from food waste to those experienced in the Victorian Era....

From the London Engineering Project, this document gives practical advice to practitioners about gender and cultural diversity, and suggests good practice in technology and engineering delivery.

A collection of resources linked to the London Marathon that explore:- 

• the forces involved in running and specifically air resistance
• the engineering involved in developing products such as advanced running shoes, or running blades for amputees and people born without legs, and sports...

This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science and design and technology. This resource focusses on identifying whether or not everyday products are made from magnetic materials.

This is one of a series of resources from the Institution of Engineering and Technology, produced in association with Fairfield Control Systems, exploring the theme of waterways. 

In this lesson, pupils will focus on the Anderton boat lift, which was restored by a multi-company collaboration including...

In this activity from the IET, pupils learn about conductors and insulators of electricity, ionic and covalent bonds, as well as closed circuits, whilst creating their own playdough electrical circuits.  The resource also includes a wordsearch to reinforce vocabulary and support assessment of understanding.

In this activity pupils will make use of the theme of football on the Moon to make an experiment of terrarium, so that grass can be grown for a lunar football game. This theme can be used to support discussion around the engineering challenges for travelling and potentially living on the Moon, such as how will we...

This is one of a series of resources from the IET designed around the theme of the future of flight with the purpose of developing pupils knowledge and skills in engineering and mathematics. This activity explores water-powered ‘hero’ rotary engines, which convert water pressure to rotary motion. Devices of this...

This lesson aimed at upper primary links to aspects of sound, electricity and design and technology. Looking at how we use technology to communicate with each other, children think about how telephones work, from string-can phones to modern mobile devices. Provided with different scenarios children decide on which...

The National STEM Learning Centre and Network supports the teaching and learning of science, design and technology, computing, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education in schools and colleges throughout the United Kingdom, from primary level to post-16.
