University of Glasgow Cluster Engagement Weeks
So far we have delivered activities at 32 schools in the Highlands, engaging with approximately 1000 children. These events have been run by staff and students from the University of Glasgow, with support from Emily Brown and Highland Council. Each workshop was 45-60 minutes long and involved a hands on science activity or a talk and Q&A session about STEM careers. We also held 6 community events in these areas, attended by around 200 people, and have run a CPD workshop for 13 teachers.
