For primary schools

Bringing the magic of real science to your school

It looks like magic, but it's real science. Our after-school clubs put experiments right in front of your pupils: things fizz, pop, glow and launch, and every child gets their hands on it.

Our specialist science presenters bring the kit, the energy and the know-how. Your pupils go home buzzing, often with something they've built themselves.

What makes our clubs special

Science pupils can see, touch and take home

Every club is built around one idea: the moment an experiment works and a child's face lights up.

Real science, happening right there

Pupils don't just read about reactions, they watch them happen. Fizzing potions, erupting volcanoes, rockets and dry-ice clouds: big wow moments, planned and run safely by our presenters.

Build it, then take it home

In most sessions children make something to take home, like lava lamps, torches, telegraphs and balloon-powered cars. The science leaves the classroom with them, and the conversation carries on at home.

Specialist science, brought to you

Many primary schools don't have a science specialist on the staff, and busy timetables leave little room for big practical experiments. Our presenters live and breathe hands-on science, and bring everything they need with them.

Why schools love it

Curious minds, confident scientists

Our clubs support and extend science from Reception to Year 8 (EYFS to KS3), and go well beyond it, introducing topics pupils won't always meet in lessons. It's a friendly space where it's fine to get things wrong and try again. That's how real scientists work.

  • Topics such as forces, materials, light, sound, electricity and states of matter
  • Fresh topics every term, so children who come back don't repeat content
  • Small groups of up to 18, so every child gets properly hands-on
  • Children learn by asking questions, testing ideas and seeing what happens
How it works

A brilliant club, with nothing for your office to run

We bring the presenter, the kit and the booking system. You provide a classroom.

Say hello

Get in touch and we'll agree a day, year groups and start date.

Free taster

We run a free trial session so pupils can see what the club is like.

Parents book with us

We give you a flyer to share with families. Parents book and pay us directly, so there's nothing for the office to collect.

Club runs weekly

One hour straight after school, once a week, with a fresh topic each term.

We bring

An experienced science presenter, all the equipment and materials, booking and payment for parents, and flyers for your newsletter.

You provide

A classroom or similar space with chairs and tables, ideally with a sink, a weekly after-school slot, and help sharing our flyer with parents.

Free trial offer

See the magic for yourself

Try a Genie club before you commit. We'll run a free taster session and give you flyers for interested families.

One free session per child, subject to space. Clubs are usually paid for by parents, so there's normally no cost to the school.
