Triple S - Science for School Students

Our aims are to:

• encourage young students to keep their options open by taking science and mathematics in Upper School;
• promote the concept of science being central to the successful function of society;
• convey the scope and diversity of careers which are covered by the umbrella term ‘science’;
• excite students with ‘hands on’ activities and mental challenges, thereby stimulating interest in the process and skills of science as well as the content;
• provide practical examples of science careers by contact with passionate people working in science and technology;
• especially encourage girls to take a scientific career pathway;
• counter the image of the ‘mad scientist’ by interaction with accessible scientists.
