Children are fascinated by the Police, Crimes and Crime Scene Science. This practical, fun and interactive day sees them develop a range of practical investigation skills which culminates in solving a "real" crime scene and is a fantastic compliment to the school curriculum.
Experienced police detectives run this highly interactive day and bring challenge and fun into the classroom. Children are guided through a set of practically based scenarios demonstrating how science aids an investigation and how their classroom based learning facilitates this. They look at searching, deprivation of liberty (arresting) and DNA, and the day concludes with the investigation of a “real” crime scene where all of their skills are brought together.
Our inspirational role models are picked for their ability to engage with children, break barriers and introduce children to the children to a range of careers within law, investigation and science. We promote rule of law, tolerance, British values and deep thinking amongst many other things.
This exciting day is a perfect way to engage all learners and our flexible lesson plans can be adapted to meet various school topics (e.g. science, crime and punishment). The children leave with a whole host of investigation materials that they use to investigate crime and also a certificate to remember the day and show off to families the enhanced school offering.
See our video for more information and please look here for a good overview of each part of the day.
We cover England and Wales and can cater for around 30 children per full day workshop. We travel to your school and run the day from any reasonably sized classroom and adapt our lesson plans to fit in with your usual school timings.
