For secondary schools, we focus on providing specific expertise and equipment required to facilitate deep learning in areas teachers find most difficult to deliver. We work with university academics to ensure that the scientific grounding is at the cutting edge, providing valuable learning experiences for teachers and students from KS3 through to AS and A2-level.

Our approach to mathematics is equally in-depth and we also offer a GCSE in Astronomy (in partnership with Northumbria University).
Learner Levels

For primaries, we offer workshops to cover all parts of the science curriculum at every stage from Reception to the top of KS2. We support our workshops with equipment and resources which are unavailable in most primary schools. Our approach is broad and we set our workshops in context by making links to other areas of the primary curriculum. The workshops are designed to develop creativity in the students, cover all the science essentials – and be fun! Learner Levels

• Gifted and Talented Days for students at KS2 and KS3.
• Mathsplosion to help KS4 students achieve the highest grades.
• Maths Stimulus Days for sixth form.
• Mathstastic for all LKS2, UKS2 and KS3 classes.

As well as practical and theoretical science, Life specialises in facilitating dialogue and discussion, encouraging young people to reach their own conclusions about scientific issues in a structured and guided fashion.

Looking for CPD in maths or science for you or your staff? Life adopts a child-centred, practical and creative approach. The aim is to equip teachers with examples, ideas and tools that can be implemented in the classroom immediately.
