School of Physics and Astronomy Outreach and Schools Liaison

We value our contacts with teachers and pupils in primary and secondary schools and colleges and we are continually developing links, activities and resources which we hope will enrich the school curriculum and support Physics education.

We organise activities for students and teachers visiting the University and also take activities out into schools and colleges. At a variety of levels, we aim to give insights into current research, explain degree and career options and generally enthuse the next generation to study Physics and Astronomy!

We have mailing list for teachers and a mailing list for home-educators, that you can join to receive a monthly newsletter with upcoming events for you and your student-learners.

To stay up to date with our upcoming events we recommend that you join our teacher mailing list.

The University of Birmingham Outreach Team also offer a range of activities for primary school pupils so please visit their page to find out more.
