The Primary Science Solution for International Schools

Ask any head of primary what happens to science when the STEM coordinator leaves, and you will get a knowing look. The programme that took three years to build walks out the door with them. The classroom teachers left behind are capable and willing, but most have no science background, no practical resources and no hours in the week to plan hands-on lessons from scratch. The Primary Science Solution for International Schools

Junior Einsteins Science Club® is the solution to exactly that problem. A complete, ready-to-run primary science system that any teacher can deliver with confidence, whatever their background, and that stays strong through every staffing change.

How it works

Schools receive two full years of weekly, 60-minute hands-on science sessions with no repeated topic. Every script comes with learning aims, risk assessments, differentiation, equipment lists and the pedagogy behind it. Teachers tell us it saves them seven or more hours of STEM preparation a week, and no science degree is needed to deliver it. Teachers train and certify through the Junior Einsteins Academy, so the programme belongs to the school, not to one member of staff.

The children never touch a screen.  Screen Free STEM experiments for kids. They spend every session experimenting, building, investigating and discovering with their own hands, in lab coats and safety goggles, exactly like real scientists.

What the children actually do

The breadth is enormous. Our J’unior Einsteins ‘explore chemistry through bubbling potions, colour-change reactions, polymers and non-Newtonian fluids; physics through forces, levers, catapults, magnets, light and optics, static electricity with our Van de Graaff generator and lightning with plasma balls; and engineering through bridge building, storm defences, Smart Cities, rocket races, robotics, simple circuits and the science of flight. They dig into geology and palaeontology, uncover the past through archaeology and anthropology, travel through the Solar System and investigate the weather. They study anatomy with skeletons, x-rays and real stethoscopes, explore MedTech and the technology behind modern medicine, discover marine biology and life in our oceans, and turn detective with police and forensic science, solving full crime scene investigations. Microbiology, glow-in-the-dark science, magical maths and dozens more, covering every letter of STEM.

Built for the frameworks international schools work in

The curriculum is aligned with Cognia expectations, IB PYP, IPC, NGSS, the British National Curriculum, High Performance Learning and UDL, plus Cambridge, Australian, Singapore, Canadian, UAE, Saudi, Qatar and New Zealand frameworks. Schools run it as curriculum science, after-school enrichment, holiday camps, STEM days and revenue-generating events, all from the same system.

Fourteen years of proof

Since 2012, Junior Einsteins Science Club® has reached over 900,000 children and now operates across Ireland, the UK, Luxembourg, Ukraine, Canada and Saudi Arabia. Our partnerships with international schools in Dublin, including Nord Anglia International School, the Lycée Français International Samuel Beckett, the International School of Dublin and Rosemont International School, have run for over a decade. This year we won International Franchise of the Year and Leadership in Franchising in Ireland, and I will be speaking at CERN in Geneva this November about our global work. As Sir Richard Branson said when he saw it in action: “This is brilliant, I want my grandchildren doing this.”

Let’s talk

We are expanding our international school licensing this year  and as a COBIS member we know the world you operate in. If you are a head of school, head of primary or STEM coordinator, We would love a conversation about whether Junior Einsteins fits your school.
