Summary:

Newly-appointed Head of Science Gemma Beacon is thinking about setting up a Science and Engineering Club at her school. She travels to Newquay Tretherras School in Cornwall to visit an excellent club that's already up and running. Gemma discovers what the key ingredients are that go into making a popular and engaging Science and Engineering Club. The school she visits in Cornwall has one remarkable feature - a giant geodesic dome they've built in the middle of the grounds. The dome acts as a central concept that all the activities of the Science and Engineering Club revolve around. Gemma identifies ten key concepts that could help you set up your own Science and Engineering club in accordance with best practice. Gemma discovers that flexibility is as important as planning, and that incorporating students' ideas is what has led to the clubs' success.
