Hello South Street, we’re NUSTEM. We’re based at Northumbria University, and we work across the region supporting children, families and teachers in exploring science, technology, engineering and maths. We’re particularly keen to help people recognise that careers in these STEM subjects are available to them.
On this page you’ll find a summary of the things we’ve done with your school, and links to follow-up activities you can do at home.

Today some Year 5/6 came into our Think Lab at Northumbria University to become cryptographers, and some did the workshop at school. This involved encrypting and decrypting messages and discovering how this keeps us safe online.
