For British Science Week 2016, Demo Day will take place on Thursday 17 March.
Demo Day is an opportunity to celebrate the power that hands-on science demonstrations have to inspire, excite and fuel the imaginations of young people. We’re encouraging all secondary schools to get involved and pledge their participation as part of our national campaign.

We’re keen to count the total number of schools participating in Demo Day 2016, so please register your demo – or the date and time of the class you’re going to hold it in – as an ‘event’ on our registration system – we’re really keen to count the number of schools taking part, and your pledge will show up on our map.
