Across the UK, too many children disengage from STEM long before key subject or pathway choices are made.
This loss of confidence and connection sits beneath the skills gap and demands a response that starts earlier and goes deeper.
Cambridge Science Centre exists to respond to this challenge. By partnering with industry, academia and communities, we translate complex STEM into accessible, awe-inspiring experiences that build confidence, belonging and agency over time.
We focus on long-term, community-rooted engagement, shaped by evidence rather than assumption. A research-backed theory of change brings consistency, depth and accountability to everything we deliver.
Over the next five years, we will position Cambridge Science Centre as a recognised centre of excellence in community-led STEM engagement. Through sustained programmes, strong partnerships and sector leadership, we will act as a catalyst for innovation, collaboration and national influence.
This strategy sets a clear direction for how Cambridge Science Centre will help make that future possible.
