STEM TeachMeet - Wiltshire
The main part of any TeachMeet is hearing stories from teachers and other education professionals about what works in practice. We want to know about what you do that makes your students interested in and excited about STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
This STEM TeachMeet takes place in the unique setting of the Science Museum at Wroughton - a former RAF airfield, and now home to over 200,000 objects from the Science Museum's fascinating collection.
Original scientific, engineering and technology materials that have shaped our understanding of the world are kept in the Library where we will meet - we'll even get a quick tour on the night!
Space is limited, so get your tickets while you can!
