Local STEM coordinators
The UHI STEM Outreach Programme is a series of ‘Discovery Kits’ containing themed content, resources and learning plans aligned to the Curriculum for Excellence.
UHI STEM Outreach Coordinators take Discovery Kits to schools and work alongside teachers to deliver the topic in a fun and engaging way.
Sessions are supplied at no cost to the school and there is support for teachers to help develop confidence in their own STEM knowledge.
Below you’ll find the names of our UHI STEM outreach coordinators, along with the areas they cover.
If you’d like to learn more about the outreach programme and our Discovery Kits, or if you’d like to arrange an outreach session, please contact the relevant coordinator using the email address provided. Alternatively, you can get in touch with the UHI STEM team at STEM@uhi.ac.uk.
