Hands-on science CPD
Builds staff confidence, subject knowledge and practical teaching skills — including for non-science specialists.
Science support for primary schools done differently
Science that works for alternative provision
Practical. Engaging. Flexible. Designed around your learners.
Every young person deserves the opportunity to experience science that is exciting, relevant and genuinely hands-on. ABC Science CIO, supported by Humanity Gives, works with Alternative Provision settings across the Midlands to help teachers and educators deliver high-quality practical science with confidence.
Bespoke support
Not one-size-fits-all
We recognise that Alternative Provision is not one-size-fits-all. Learners may have very different starting points, needs, interests and experiences of education. That is why our support can be adapted around your setting and your young people, rather than expecting you to fit around a fixed programme.
