To celebrate the historic launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, Discovery Diaries, STFC, and the Webb UK campaign are offering free professional training, teacher resource books, and individual pupil books to bring the excitement of space into primary classrooms.

These sessions will run as a pair of webinars:

4-5:15pm on May 20th and 4-5:15pm on June 22nd

The training will focus on arts-based STEM learning using the Deep Space Diary, a cross-curricular primary science resource for KS2 (or equivalent). The activities can be used for an exciting cross-curricular space-themed week of learning or embedded to teach a range of subjects – such as Solar System, light, coordinates, formal writing, D&T and coding – whilst enhancing researching and problem solving skills. The programme will connect you with a creative community of primary teachers, STEM learning experts and Webb mission experts across the UK.

Participating UK teachers will receive a free Teacher Resource Book and will be able to register for free class-sets of individual Deep Space Diaries for their pupils.

Note: If you would like to participate but cannot attend both sessions of the pair, recordings will be made available after you register. However, attendance at one of the live events is required to access the free resources and participation in both is encouraged.
