PURCH2772 Provision of Research-Based Lesson Plans in Scottish Classrooms The STEM SPACE Project is delivering a novel set of lesson plans to Scottish teachers and conducting research to investigate their effectiveness. To reduce barriers to taking part in the research, we are using project funds to provide concrete classroom resources to teachers who are taking part. Now going into its third year, the STEM SPACE Project is aiming to reach 400 schools with an average of 4 classes each, meaning we will need to secure resources for 1600 classrooms. We are looking for a supplier who can help us provide these resources to be sent to schools. Please refer to the PURCH2772 Invitation to Tender Goods or Services document for additional information.
