We are delighted to inform you that Explorify will continue under the management of STEM Learning in partnership with the Primary Science Teaching Trust. The partnership is supported by The Ogden Trust and the Glasgow Science Centre.
In the new Explorify partnership, STEM Learning provides the digital expertise to ensure that the product stays safe and up to date. STEM Learning and the Primary Science Teaching Trust will continue to develop and disseminate Explorify content, and will work together to encourage teachers and science leaders to access high-quality resources and to engage in pathways of excellent professional development.
Both STEM Learning and the Primary Science Teaching Trust are looking forward to this fresh opportunity to work together, and with other organisations across the sector, to foster excellence in primary science teaching.
