Notice Title

Union Chain Bridge: Crossing Borders, Inspiring Communities STEM Learning Consultant

Notice Description

An experienced STEM Learning Consultant is required to deliver a STEM Learning Programme which forms a key component of the Union Chain Bridge: Crossing borders, inspiring communities project. Using the Union Chain Bridge project as a focus and driver of activity with first, primary and middle schools on both sides of the borders, the programme will support teachers in developing and improving their STEM practice; engage families in supporting their children's learning; and introduce STEM careers ideas in accessible ways. The programme's central aim is to prompt a generation of primary/middle school leavers to enter secondary school understanding that STEM routes are accessible to 'people like me'; a key attitudinal change which will secure a genuine legacy for the Union Chain Bridge Project. Additional information: This is a re-publication of the opportunity after the first process did not generate sufficient interest.
