Outreach & School Learning

 Inspiring Future Innovators




We believe that it is our responsibility to ensure the broadest community possible has access to the creative arts and STEAM opportunities - and run a range of creative and engaging events across schools, community centres and festivals in and around London.
   
Supporting the National Curriculm for Science, Design and Technology tailored to key stages 2-5, we offer students and educators research-grade STEAM education facilities and workshops supporting a wider vibrant programme connected to schools locally.


Discover our demand, STEAM-led creative workshops for schools available for bookings in a wide range of topics.
