Virtual Planetarium Learning

Post Event Continued Learning

Since March 2020, we moved a huge amount of our content, support, learning materials and 1-1 tuition online, via our Moodle platform. This is completely free to schools who book one of our virtual workshops.

Any student, teacher, or class who you feel would benefit from additional online learning, can request to join, providing they have parental permission. Since March 2020, we have supported and taught well over 3200 students, via our Moodle Platform and Zoom talks. They can ask questions, gain career advice, and also seek support from our specialist and experience education teams.

New Virtual Planetarium Learning

Due to increased demand for our services online, we have developed a powerful online, virtual learning experience including your very own planetarium.

Each school can subscribe to this service on either a monthly basis, or a one-off payment for the year.
