All of our Science for School events cover a range of curriculum for KS1, KS2 and KS3 students. To make it easier to find out what curriculum an individual event covers, we've added a lightening badge to each event in our brochure to highlight these.

And that's not all, here we've listed all the curriculum covered in each Key Stage and all the events that fall into those categories.
