Educational support
Sellafield Ltd is a knowledge-based company with a nationally important scientific, engineering and technology skills base. Having for many years played a part in developing the high level of skills required by the nuclear industry, we recognise that those skills are in increasingly short supply.
To meet these challenges our education programme is designed to nurture an enthusiasm for science, engineering, technology and mathematics in young people. The knowledge, understanding and skills they gain can lead to worthwhile and exciting careers, driving forward innovation and supporting the economic resurgence of our communities.
Supported by the NDA and working with partners in the education and skills field our programme supports education throughout the school years.
Succeeding with science
Succeeding with Science is an educational programme supported by Sellafield Ltd (on behalf of the NDA).
Sellafield Ltd has gained the reputation of being one of the foremost companies in the UK for providing sponsored teaching resources.
These resources are produced for teachers by teachers. As teaching aids, they are designed to fit precisely into the curriculum and are produced to high standards of innovation and good practice. Such is the quality of these resources that they are recommended by examining bodies, curriculum advisers and subject co-ordinators.
Our 'Succeeding with Science in the classroom' educational programme is delivered by Teachers from Industry and provides primary schools with 'hands-on' science workshops for pupils aged 5 to 11 years to schools in the Warrington, Halton and St Helens areas.
