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’re keen to explore how you think education and industry can work together to encourage a more diverse take up of STEM subjects. Have a watch of our short videos featuring teaching staff like you talking about this very subject and why they think science matters.
When you think of the future of AI in education, what images come to your mind? Visions of screens? Robotics and circuitry? I wonder if your first thought includes any people; the close and crucial relationships between leaders and pupils, educators, communities and employers that shape the world around us.
If the past year has taught us anything, it’s that enabling learning for primary children through digital technology is hard without preparation. Schools that had invested in pedagogy, technology and partnerships have ridden the storms of lockdowns better and with less disruption.
Primary teachers have been amazingly adaptable and creative in their solutions. So much is normally built into the physical spaces and human interactions on top of the formal curriculum, that moving to online resources to deliver the curriculum while maintaining relationships with the children was a big ask.
As we find a way out of lockdown and the 21/22 academic year comes into view this is a good time to explore how to make digital provision a more natural part of school life by integrating the best aspects of our lockdown experiences.
In late 2020, a flurry of electrifying poems swept in to be judged for Pearson’s poetry competition on the subject of ‘Belonging’. Inspired by Imtiaz Dharker’s whirlwind exploration of confused identity, In Wales, Wanting To Be Italian (PDF, 211KB), and influenced by pieces from Pearson’s GCSE collection Belonging, British students from Years 9, 10 and 11 submitted a broad selection of brilliant verse.
