We are the official account for the Polar Museum, which is part of the Scott Polar Research Institute, located in central Cambridge.
Here we will post our varied education resources packed with brilliant ideas to get your students thinking creatively about polar exploration, with links across a wide range of subjects including maths, art, geography, science and literacy. The majority of our resources are aimed at primary school children but are often adaptable to older age groups too.
