A.I.M. High days are really special. allowing enthusiastic young writers/scientists or mathematicians to work with professional tutors for a day. Why not try a taster day as a host school or join in with a session in a nearby venue. @authorsabroad.bsky.social

We all know author visits engage young people with #readingforpleasure but did you know some authors give talks on #STEM topics too?
Here's a thread of suggestions for visiting authors who give real cross-curricular value and can help young people see STEM subjects in a completely new light.
