Adastral Park places a huge focus on the next generation of technologists – hosting around 8,000 school children each year, offering a free programme of stimulating events, virtual learning resources and working with global universities, to bring exciting careers in STEM to life.

In March, we are bringing Virtual British Science week to schools, pupils and parents – for FREE!

5 days – 5 themes

Monday 8th March - Cyber Security
Tuesday 9th March - Smart Cities
Wednesday 10th March - Creative Media
Thursday 11th March - Drones
Friday 12th March - Health & Sports Science

Each day a new theme will be launched at our dedicated web pages

Our regular hosts will introduce the theme of the day. You will be able to access videos exploring each theme and the cool technology that brings these themes alive.

An activity pack supports the week too! Think Blue Peter! Have a go at making a Cipher Wheel; create a Scratch Drone Game or design the ultimate athlete plus more! There is something for everyone to get involved in.

You can also join us each day for FREE, from 1345 – 1430 for a live Q&A session with the experts. These sessions will be run through a moderated MS Teams live stream. You can register to join each of the sessions at West Suffolk College’s website

Students can read supporting profile cards introducing them to the experts – a chance to learn about their qualifications; what they like best about their work, a fun fact plus more!

Our thanks to West Suffolk College; University of Bath, University of Manchester, University of Suffolk, Imperial College London, and Innovation Martlesham member, Muhdo Ltd, who have also produced some fantastic videos and activities to support each day of British Science Week.

All of this amazing content will enhance our existing online virtual learning videos we have produced to support the school curriculum.

British Science Week is a fantastic opportunity to tap into young bright minds and a great way to explore key hot topics in a fun and engaging way.
