About Hands on Science

hands on science History

In 2006 we recognised that teachers faced a real challenge – lack of time to develop a range of practical science resources.

Budgets and lack of storage made buying in experiments prohibitive too.

So we set up Hands on Science and developed a great catalogue of Primary and Secondary resources. They cover the New Primary Science Curriculum, fun Science Enrichment Themes and all 4 Secondary STEM subjects.

We launched our INSET Programme for SEN and Primary Schools in 2012. It is proving a popular, accessible and cost effective resource for teachers looking to build confidence and expertise in practical classroom science.

Hands on Science Partnerships is a separate division.

Set up in 2010 to work in partnerships with organisations, we work with a range of charities, festivals and companies.

Every partner organisation has a key account manager whose job it is to meet their objectives and deliver great science – in the UK and abroad. Read more here.
