The STEM Nation Award programme celebrates, promotes and builds effective practice in STEM education within and across sectors. Successful applications for the award will demonstrate whole setting approaches to STEM developments and improvement planning. It is likely that settings considering the award will be able to identify strengths in a number of the STEM Nation Award elements but may need time to develop other aspects before applying for the full award. The links on this page will direct you to a range of resources and professional learning opportunities that will help to support developments across all five STEM Nation Award elements in your setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
