Target audience

The Service’s main targets are students aged 10-19 years and their teachers.
 
Grabbing attention in the early secondary years (11-14 year olds) is crucial, as a range of evidence shows that many students interested in science during their formative school years do not build on this interest in the following stages of education.
 
There is evidence to suggest that using space in schools could make a significant contribution to rectifying this situation and hence improve continuity of science and STEM-related studies after the age of 16 - thereby contributing towards the future ‘pool’ of scientists and engineers.
