The Science Hub - East Herts, Essex, Beds & Milton Keynes
The Science Hub - East Herts, Essex, Beds & MK provides quality, subject-specific Continuous Professional Development (CPD) for primary and secondary schools across West Essex. Currently, we cover the Saffron Teaching School Hub areas of Chelmsford, Epping Forest and Harlow.
We support school leads, teachers and technicians to develop high-quality science and STEM provision for all young people in schools and colleges locally. They offer courses through the academic year, and can also help with bespoke training solutions and one-to-one support.
