Information for Schools and Educators

Explore STEM in action at Brooklands Innovation Academy 

Bring your pupils along to explore first-hand the world of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) against the historic and inspirational backdrop of Brooklands Museum.

Join us on Tuesday 3^rd October 2023 for a day packed with innovation and inspiration, designed to show your year 8 students that STEM careers are creative, innovative and enjoyable.

We’ll invite 400 students to join us for a day of TED-style talks by leading scientists and engineers - including a special keynote presentation by Professor Brian Cox CBE FRS – and practical workshops, many presented by leading STEM-based companies and trainers in and around Surrey. We aim to connect your students to the careers of the future – inspired by our amazing collection and a team of talented scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians from industry.

It’s a chance to meet with students and teachers from other schools. And we run a year-round programme of free STEM events for schools. This year’s programme includes a day on flight and simulations inspired by Barnes Wallis, a day themes around STEM careers in construction, and a day focusing on alternative energy.

And we’ll be inviting parents, students and special guests to come along for a special evening event.
