About the Primary Science Teaching Trust (PSTT)
PSTT is a registered charity with a clear vision – we want to see excellent teaching of science in every primary classroom in the UK. We believe it is vital that children are engaged and inspired by science from an early age.

Scientific skills and knowledge are essential for every child, whether or not they become a scientist, engineer or medic.
We’ve built a Primary Science Teacher College of over 200 outstanding Fellows, each helping to shape and influence science teaching across the UK. We produce great resources that improve how science is taught and planned, including through the award-winning Explorify website. We provide professional learning and development that supports thousands of schools each year, through our national CPD programme and our network of Regional Mentors across England.
Through our new strategy, we are refining PSTT’s approach (building our work around a clear definition of what excellence in primary science means), targeting our efforts (giving our most intensive support to schools and teachers that need it most) and focusing on the impact of our work.
