ExpertEd is a free resource using three different, cross-curricular strands to engage with all pupils, regardless of background or ability, from age 9 to 13.
Highlight Speakers
Highlight Speakers brings some famous names into classrooms and give pupils the chance to hear from, and put their questions to, a spectacular line-up from the worlds of business, academia and adventure including our patron, Professor Lord Robert Winston.
Curriculum Enrichment
Curriculum Enrichment is available as lesson enrichment during the school day for those pupils who want to develop their cultural capital through connecting with experts in a variety of fields. Careers in the Classroom transports experts into classrooms, giving pupils the chance to listen to and question everyone from mechanics to aerospace engineers and ask questions about the journey that took them there.
Family
ExpertEdLive: Family allows parents and children to learn together connecting directly from home. Events including our popular Midweek Maths series give parents insights as to how their children access learning so they can then support them in other areas of learning and life.
