STEM workshops for schools
AweSTEM delivers hands-on STEM education for children aged 5–14 across Surrey. If you are a teacher, subject lead, PTA member or school business manager looking to bring robotics, coding or game design to your pupils, we would like to hear what you have in mind.
We plan each school booking around your year groups, timetable and space rather than a fixed package — so the quickest route is a short conversation.
What AweSTEM does
Hands-on from the first minute
Our sessions are practical, not lecture-based. Children build, program and test things themselves, working at their own pace with an instructor alongside them. Our curriculum is designed by industry experts working in engineering, computer science, artificial intelligence and coding.
Ages 5 to 14
AweSTEM works with children aged 5 to 14, across primary and lower secondary. Each course is structured so its complexity suits the age group, letting children progress at their own pace — so the same subject area can be pitched very differently for an infant class and for a Year 9 group.
Subject areas we can deliver
These are the areas AweSTEM teaches across its camps and term-time courses, and the starting point for any school conversation.

including LEGO robotics
Coding
Game Design

Planning a booking together
Every school asks for something slightly different, so we do not publish a fixed package. To give you a useful answer quickly, it helps if your first message covers:
Your school and roughly where you are
Year groups and how many pupils
Subject areas you are interested in
What the session is for — enrichment day, STEM week, club, or something else
Rough dates or the term you have in mind
Anything about your space or equipment we should know
