STEM Nation Award


The STEM Nation Award has been developed by Education Scotland to celebrate, promote and build on effective practice in STEM education within and across sectors.

All early learning and childcare (ELC) settings, primary schools, secondary schools and providers of community learning and development (CLD) are eligible to apply for the STEM Nation Award. Settings may apply for an individual element or any combination of elements. Settings which achieve all five elements within a three year period will be eligible for the full STEM Nation Award after successfully completing a validation conversation.

The team at Education Scotland look forward to supporting you on your STEM Nation Award journey. We encourage you to start off by exploring the guidance documents and resources below or using the hyperlinks above to register your setting today!




Further support is available by contacting STEM@educationscotland.gov.scot and stating the name of your setting and the local authority in which you work.
