We're committed to helping learners understand the relevance of science to the world around them, and the many future science-related opportunities to be explored.
Whether it be inventing the next solution to combat climate change or developing a life-changing medical break-through, we're focused on supporting today's young thinkers in their endeavour to change the future for the better.
Among the unprecedented events of 2020 came a range of scientific discoveries that slipped under the radar. We’ve created free and downloadable posters which focus on these discoveries and look at why they’re so important and exciting to know about. You can explore and use these posters to inspire your students in the classroom or as starter questions to be used in lessons as discussion topics.
We're shining a spotlight on scientists for several awareness and international days in 2021. We've chosen scientists who deserve recognition, inspired generations, and positively impacted the way we live today. Explore our free, downloadable booklets for each of our chosen scientists, which are filled with key facts and information, as well as fun activities and discussion starters with your students.
This podcast is here to inform, engage and entertain, with the help of thought leaders, science journalists and education specialists joining us for each episode. We'll be discussing what’s going on in science classrooms today and exploring how we can make things better.
The Pearson Science team is bringing our popular A-Z STEM poster to life by showcasing a variety of future options available within the STEM field. We’ve talked to real-life experts and captured behind-the-scenes looks into the daily lives of several STEM roles. Explore this exciting new project that will spark inspiration in the hearts and minds of your learners!
Our science team is always inspired by the work and discoveries of scientists across the world and the impact they have had on the way we live today. Have a look at some of the key scientists that have inspired our science team in our 'scientist of the month' blog series. Not only will you learn about the scientist and their discoveries, but you will also be able to download an inspirational poster for you to put up in your classroom.
We’re keen to explore how you think education and industry can work together to encourage a more diverse take up of STEM subjects. Have a watch of our short videos featuring teaching staff like you talking about this very subject and why they think science matters.

Many of the skills inherent to reading are developed through spoken language long before children learn to associate sound with print. Attending to children’s early spoken language development is a stepping stone towards building reading proficiency later on.
The importance of fostering an inclusive learning environment is widely recognised. When students see themselves reflected in the curriculum they learn, the classrooms they learn in, and the school community they are part of; they feel empowered, engaged and able to thrive.
