Schools and colleges

We want the best and brightest young people to take up the challenges of chemistry so that one day they can provide solutions to problems posed by modern life.

Our team offer a range of activities to make chemistry accessible and exciting to a young audience. We have appeared at key science events such as MOSI's Meet the Scientist days, the Manchester Science Festival, Jodrell Bank Science Festival and in the BBC Bang Goes the Theory Live tent, promoting chemistry to as wide an audience as we can.

Many of our sessions can be tailored to the needs of a specific age group. Find out more about what's available for the students in your school or association below.
