Explorathon 2021: Bugs, Bees, Plants and The Great Outdoors – A Summary

by | Sep 29, 2021 | TILE Talk Reflection

On 20 September 2021, we had the pleasure to jointly organise an Explorathon 2021 webinar with the Scottish Network for Able Pupils (SNAP) on “Bugs, Bees, Plants and The Great Outdoors”. We heard about a range of exciting school-based projects all of which have their roots in sustainability. These projects have been developed to include all learners. By making small tweaks and thinking creatively they can provide wonderful opportunities for engaging our highly able learners.
