A busy week for Stemovators. We ran our final Climate Smarter CPD of the year, exploring the Soil Moisture Detector lesson and using the micro:bit to test conditions.

We also held a team development day to plan our 2026/27 project.

STEM education is about more than subjects, it opens doors, builds confidence, and connects young people to the world around them.

Our programmes bring together schools, industry and educators to spark curiosity and build a more inclusive, skilled future https://t.co/ZLClc5mDf1

A busy week for Stemovators!

We joined #ScotsmanGreenSkills25, speaking on a panel about the next generation of skills and how STEM can build stronger pathways into engineering. We also ran a joint session at UofG Dumfries for primary education students.

Inspiring young people to think about the skills needed for a greener future is at the core of Stemovators.

Our hands-on STEM projects help pupils explore real industries and see how their ideas can shape a more sustainable tomorrow.

Another busy few weeks for Stemovators!

We’ve been in Wigtownshire & South Ayrshire delivering Climate Smarter CPD — now in its 2nd year thanks to the Kilgallioch Community Fund.

This year marks an expansion into South Ayrshire, plus new online sessions for teachers.

STEM learning builds more than knowledge — it develops teamwork, problem-solving, and confidence.

Through programmes like Climate Smarter, pupils gain real skills and recognition that inspire them to keep exploring the world of STEM.

Another inspiring week for Stemovators!

We joined the Hydrogen Scotland Conference to support the H2 Challenge — building hydrogen-powered cars with delegates — and delivered Climate Smarter CPD in Helensburgh through the SSE Hydro Community Fund.

[Stemovators @Stemovators]

STEM learning is about more than science and technology - it builds creativity, confidence, and teamwork.

Through Stemovators, pupils take ownership of their ideas, solve problems, and develop skills that last long after the project ends.

[Stemovators @Stemovators]

The team’s been on the road again, this time at Oban High School delivering Climate Smarter CPD sessions.

It’s always inspiring to see teachers engaging with sustainability and STEM. These kits were supported by Par Forestry and Aviva Investors.

[Stemovators @Stemovators]

When young people get the chance to showcase their STEM learning, something special happens — confidence grows, curiosity thrives, and futures start to take shape.

Our programmes help pupils explore real careers and see where STEM can take them.

Something new is on the horizon 👀

We’re getting ready to launch our Construct a Crane project, challenging pupils to design and build working model cranes while exploring how construction is helping drive net zero in Scotland.

Stay tuned for more!
