We’re delighted to be working with The Science Hub to bring schools in Hertfordshire and beyond a wider range of practical, high-quality science support throughout 2026/27.
Based at The Hertfordshire & Essex High School in Bishop’s Stortford, The Science Hub is school led and understands first-hand the challenges schools face when delivering science and providing professional development for staff. Its responsive programme supports science teachers, leaders, technicians and support staff through affordable, expert-led training, networking and events.
Whether you lead science in a primary or secondary school, are reviewing your curriculum or want to strengthen practical science, there are opportunities to support your team and your school’s priorities.
Sessions are delivered by practising teachers, technicians, subject knowledge specialists and pedagogy experts, with options for primary, secondary and post-16 settings.
The Leaders of Science Conference package, supported by HFL Education, gives heads of science and subject leaders time to hear current thinking, learn from specialist expertise and connect with colleagues.
The Science Hub also offers flexible professional development for new and experienced technicians, including network meetings, online learning and face-to-face sessions. Simply choose the package that best suits your team.
