Space Science and Climate Change

What exactly is going on with the Earth’s climate? What’s causing this – and how can space science help?

Introduction

This engaging and informative programme answers these questions through a series of age-appropriate, drama-based activities exploring the fragile nature of Planet Earth, the human-made origins of climate change and the enduring legacy of Katherine Johnson (the mathematician behind the Apollo moon landings) in combatting it.

Space Science and Climate Change exists in a number of formats, allowing a member of our team to work with the whole of up to a two-form entry school in a single day, or deliver longer, more in-depth workshops for classes or year groups of your choice.

Workshop FAQs

How many pupils can take part?

Space Science and Climate Change can accommodate up to 60 pupils at a time, in sessions lasting as little as one hour, meaning it is usually possible to accommodate the whole of a two-form entry school in a single day, or deliver longer, more in-depth workshops for classes or year groups of your choice.

What is the format of the day?

We will work with you to plan a timetable for the workshops, to suit the number of classes you would like to include – and around the specific timings of your school day. It might look something like this:

9.00 – 10.00: Session 1

10.00 – 11.00: Session 2

11.00 – 12.00: Session 3

LUNCH

1.00 – 2.00: Session 4

2.00 – 3.00: Session 5

Are there any technical requirements?

Your visitor will need access to a laptop/ screen/projector so that pupils can view the supporting PowerPoint throughout
