47,000 young people to benefit from Big Bang at School Blueprint thanks to RAF Charitable Trust partnership
We are partnering with RAF Charitable Trust to expand the reach of Big Bang at School Blueprint.
We are partnering with RAF Charitable Trust to expand the reach of Big Bang at School Blueprint, where secondary schools can host their own exciting science and engineering days.
The partnership with RAF Charitable Trust aims to support up to 47,000 young people enjoy their own STEM filled day with amazing science and engineering activities, workshops and project work and spark a passion and curiosity for all things STEM.
The funding will enable Big Bang at School Blueprint, which aims to bring the same fun, excitement and interactive learning experience as The Big Bang Fair, held each year at the NEC, to the classroom to benefit 11 to 14 year-olds and bring to life science, engineering and technology careers through shows, workshops and activities.
Find out more and encourage schools to sign up by 31 January
It’s fantastic to be partnering with the RAF Charitable Trust to help spread the reach of the Big Bang at School Blueprint. More young people from all backgrounds across the UK need to know about the exciting and impactful jobs to be had in science, technology and engineering. We greatly appreciate the support of the RAF Charitable Trust to help us make that happen through the Big Bang at School Blueprint - and we'll make sure children have some fun along the way!
