Abstract

Swansea University Science for Schools Scheme (S4) is part of the TrioSci Cymru consortium and is based within Swansea University’s Faculty of Science and Engineering. S4 provides science outreach via workshops to KS3 pupils in South Wales. The workshops are interactive, research led and designed to spark curiosity and a greater diversity and inclusivity in (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). S4 aims to stimulate the uptake of science education pathways, by getting young people excited and engaged in Science through these free, hands-on STEM workshops held at the University Singleton campus. However, since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, the project has incurred a significant increase in printing costs due to the requirement of bumper science workbooks for participants, where the content had become substantially larger than the originally designed workshop workbooks. This unforeseen and unplanned for provision pushed the project’s aggregated printing spend over the University’s GBP25K tender threshold, requiring the project team to now formally tender their remaining Year 3 printing requirements.
