We are relentless in our ambition to push the boundaries of primary science and engineering education. We collaborate with teachers in research and curriculum development.

We are driven by our desire to fascinate and inspire teachers and young people about science and engineering. We enhance school improvement by working in partnership with schools, educational bodies, researchers, scientists, engineers and creative professionals to make vivid the opportunities science plays in our world.

We are passionate about defining quality science teaching and learning. We listen and respond to teachers, advocating, challenging and influencing national policy for science and engineering education.
