Learning - British Science Week 2026
What's on for British Science Week 2026?
Celebrate British Science Week 2026 with a range of inspiring activities at the museum!
SEND schools/groups | Mon 2 March | SEND Schools and Groups Day
Enjoy a bespoke day tailored to the needs of SEND schools and groups, with a relaxed environment and flexible activity options. Activities include object handling sessions, a relaxed planetarium experience, and breakout spaces. Open to all ages, workshops are aimed at working-at-KS1/2 to KS3/4, so that element is likely to best suit upper primary, secondary and college aged groups.
Schools - Y6-11 |Mon 10 March | Adaptation & Evolution day
Schools - Y3-11 |Tue 11 March | Animals & Zoology day
Schools - Y3-7| Wed 12 March | Psychology day
Home educators | 12 March 12:30-3:30 | Science Adventures
Get involved in psychology research.
Please note, SEND classes are welcome on any date that suits the level and needs of the class, and we will make any adaptations we can to make this accessible to your group (please tell us what you need when you book). The SEND specific day will have a wider range of adaptations available than on a typical term-time date, so may be suitable for classes/groups who haven't been able to visit before.
How can we book?
Booking links will be available from Tue 9 Dec.
