Educational Visits
We provide an opportunity for students from schools and colleges to experience science in real-life settings.
Our SportsLab educational visits provide a unique interactive and fun learning environment, designed to enhance students’ knowledge and understanding. Educational visits explore a range of specific curriculum based topics from within the Sport and Exercise Science discipline and aim to:
