STEM careers: raise aspirations, and make them real and relevant to science
Part of ASE 2026 Annual Conference
Thursday 8 January 2026·2:45 pm
Do you want to make science real and relevant, build links with local industries and increase STEM career aspirations? This session will explore why links to real-world contexts are important, as outlined in the EEF's 'Improving Primary Science Guidance Report', and how you can improve attitudes towards science through connections to the wider curriculum. This hands-on practical workshop will showcase a variety of free, curriculum-based resources for primary teachers, supporting you to achieve this through the use of industry storylines.
