4science has written the first three (of ten) STEM Challenge activities. They have been inspired by London 2012. Each one is a competition and will focus on a different aspect of the preparations or the event itself. They provide a contextual and cross-curricular approach to studying the STEM subjects at Key Stage Three. The STEM Challenges are being managed by STEMNET (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Network) in association with the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) and are funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families. They can be found at:

A comprehensive resource to support GCSE Applied Science (Double Award). Each student has seven full-colour workbooks with spaces for answers. These are supported by a Course Guide, teaching ideas and technical guidance. And we've made sure the price of the colour workbooks is less, per page, than the average cost of black-and-white photocopying. One Resource Pack contains enough workbooks for 20 students (additional workbooks are available).
