Teachers & Head teachers please note this opportunity:
This is an exciting opportunity for students to take part in a Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) activity and help integrate STEM enrichment in school practice between February and July 2014, to be chosen from those listed on the STEM Directories.
STEM Directories?
The STEM Directories are an easy way to find Enhancement and Enrichment (E&E) opportunities to support your science, engineering, design and mathematics teaching. Some schemes bring exciting activities into your school, others can provide a memorable day out for your students or a nationwide competition to help motivate your science club. They might involve bringing a real scientist, engineer or mathematician into the classroom, give your students access to equipment not readily available or simulate real-life applications of science and technology. Many schemes can provide supporting teaching materials to help get the most of the activity.
You can also read comments left by other teachers who have used the scheme and rate schemes that you have hosted
The Royal Institution is currently administering a STEM grants scheme, generously supported by The Causeway Foundation. We are offering grants of up to £500 for eligible state-funded schools or academies in the UK to take part in an activity from the STEM Directories (www.stemdirectories.org.uk) before July 2014.
Round one is now open and will close on Friday 31 January at 5pm. For more information and to apply, visit the STEM Directories website.
Please ensure you have read the grant terms thoroughly, particularly the eligibility criteria and the guidance on what to include in your application. Please note that if you are successful, the grant will be paid directly to your chosen activity provider. Priority will be given to schools meeting certain criteria; please see the grant terms for more details.
If you have any questions that are not covered by the grant terms, please email maths@ri.ac.uk.
Best wishes,
Sam
