STEM school trips
Science Technology Engineering and Maths
A STEM school trip or workshop is a great way you can get your class excited about subjects like maths and science. Finding places that will welcome a school group is not too difficult, but finding somewhere that will really get them inspired, can be a challenge.
At PlanMySchoolTrip, we work hard to find school trip STEM venues that are run by people and organisations that really care about Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths. Whether you travel out to a local venue or they bring workshops to your school, children will get hands on experience with interactive exhibits, and take part in exciting shows, led by specialist educators.
If you are looking for school trip inspiration in any aspect of your STEM teaching, we can certainly help. Take a look at the excellent venues on this page – we work closely with every venue we feature, to make sure your trip will be a complete success. Feel free to complete the short enquiry form, and we will help you with your trip.
The MAD Museum
As the only centre for mechanical art in the country, The MAD Museum displays the finest pieces of kinetic art and automata belonging to artists, inventors and engineers from all over the world. Unlike other attractions, we encourage learners to be hands-on and interact with the machines and works of art on display. Maybe of the exhibits are one-off unique creations and all of them demonstrate innovative originality and clever design. There is also a marble run room where learners are encouraged to build their own marble run creations. As well as being a lot of fun, this room teaches learners about creative design and physics principals such as forces, air resistance and gravity. Most groups that visit our MAD Museum come back in the following years and as a small, family-run...
