We're committed to helping learners understand the relevance of science to the world around them, and the many future science-related opportunities to be explored.
Whether it be inventing the next solution to combat climate change or developing a life-changing medical break-through, we're focused on supporting today's young thinkers in their endeavour to change the future for the better.
We’ve created free and downloadable posters which focus on recent scientific discoveries and look at why they’re so important and exciting to know about. You can explore and use these posters to inspire your students in the classroom or as starter questions to be used in lessons as discussion topics.
We're shining a spotlight on scientists for several awareness and international days. We've chosen scientists who deserve recognition, inspired generations, and positively impacted the way we live today. Explore our free, downloadable booklets for each of our chosen scientists, which are filled with key facts and information, as well as fun activities and discussion starters with your students.
This podcast is here to inform, engage and entertain, with the help of thought leaders, science journalists and education specialists joining us for each episode. We'll be discussing what’s going on in science classrooms today and exploring how we can make things better.
The Pearson Science team is bringing our popular A-Z STEM poster to life by showcasing a variety of future options available within the STEM field. We’ve talked to real-life experts and captured behind-the-scenes looks into the daily lives of several STEM roles. Explore this exciting new project that will spark inspiration in the hearts and minds of your learners!
Our science team is always inspired by the work and discoveries of scientists across the world and the impact they have had on the way we live today. Have a look at some of the key scientists that have inspired our science team in our 'scientist of the month' blog series. Not only will you learn about the scientist and their discoveries, but you will also be able to download an inspirational poster for you to put up in your classroom.
We were delighted to welcome English leads from Multi Academy Trusts across the country last month to discuss the future of GCSE English.
Whilst the hottest day of the year meant a quick change from in-person to online, the session was packed full of insightful conversations around the challenges and opportunities facing GCSE English in the months and years ahead.
What happens when a teenager finishes a great book? If they’re lucky, they find another. But for too many, that’s where the story ends. They hit a wall. In fact, when we surveyed more than 1,000 students aged 13–16* about their reading habits, "I can’t find a book I like" was one of the biggest barriers to reading.
It’s not a capability issue. Students are confident readers (scoring themselves an average of 3.5 out of 5). It’s a connection issue.
Earlier this year, we launched This is Lit, a new book club designed to celebrate the best of 21st-century literature during The National Year of Reading 2026. Alongside the launch, we explored what makes today's teenagers tick when it comes to books. What we found provides a different perspective on how we think about student disengagement.
Schools across the country are helping students think critically, connect ideas and apply what they know. In an AI-driven world, these skills matter more than ever. With this in mind, AI Awareness Day gives schools a way to build AI literacy: “to know AI, question it, and use it wisely”.
