Exciting Science Opportunity

BBC are currently seeking young people aged 5-11 to participate in workshops for a series of Physics films being produced for BBC Bitesize Scotland to support the delivery of primary practical science.

They are looking for enthusiastic children, who are willing to have a go at the experiments and talk about what they are doing and what they see.

Filming will take place at the end of July, at a location in Glasgow and young people should be accompanied by a parent/carer on the day

Recording licences will be arranged directly between the BBC and the parent/carer to cover filming as required by the Scottish Government Department responsible for managing children as contributors for use in online digital media. Drinks and refreshments will be available during filming sessions and BBC will provide travel expenses.

Further information about this opportunity is attached.

Should you have any further questions or wish your child to participate in this exciting opportunity, then please contact Margaret Craw, STEM Education Officer at Education Scotland:
