STEM School Trips
Educational STEM school trips and workshops that will engage your pupils in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths
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. For younger year groups especially, STEM contains some complex ideas so it is important to find a school trip that really brings their classroom lessons to life.
STEM can be found everywhere, from bustling technology hubs and cutting-edge research facilities to smaller local businesses. Students can visit a variety of science museums, where they can get creative with interactive exhibits on everything from space exploration to the human body; sparking their curiosity and imagination.
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. You can also find lots of cross-curricular STEM trips on our Maths, Science, Engineering, and Computing and British Science Week pages
