Maker{Futures} is an outreach project and is run by the School of Education. We provide support for early years settings, schools, libraries, museums and community centres that wish to develop and deliver makerspaces. A makerspace is a space that enables users to use tools, to tinker, design and make a range of artefacts. Engagement in makerspaces can develop knowledge across a wide range of disciplines, including science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and they foster mindsets such as creativity, critical thinking and problem solving that are important for the future success of pupils.
https://makerfutures.org/You do not need a background in STEM to volunteer with us. Our activities are simple, fun and developed for primary aged pupils.
