Norfolk Science Teaching Conference

Now in it’s third year, the Norfolk Science Teaching Conference aims to connect teachers with each other and local organisations, and provide access to free learning resources.

Organised in partnership with the Teacher Scientist Network this conference is open to both primary and secondary school teachers, with hands-on workshops, free resources, and inspirational talks designed to enhance your science teaching.

“Just a fabulous day. Great to network with other teachers. Great ideas to use in class which I would not have come across any other way.”

Thanks to support from the John Innes Foundation, this free event features talks, access to free resources and hands-on workshops, with primary and secondary strands. High-quality plant and microbial science will sit alongside more generic science CPD in the programme to enhance your science teaching and inspire you.

“I loved you having a strong underlying theme during the day; the keynote was inspiring; primary and secondary together for the day was great, as it felt like we were being supportive of each other; and there were some interested stands to talk to. Thank you!”

We are pleased to be able to offer £100 bursaries to 50 teachers to help with the cost of supply cover, kindly sponsored by the John Innes Foundation. Bursaries are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and priority will be given to state schools. More information on bursaries will be available on the registration form.

Where: John Innes Centre, Norwich Research Park, Norfolk, NR4 7UH.
When: Thursday 4th March 2027, 9:00am – 3:00pm.

Applications open at the end of September.
