Scottish SPCA
As Scotland's leading animal welfare charity and as a reporting agent to the Procurator Fiscal, the Scottish SPCA has a duty to build a better world for animals. Our free ‘Prevention through Education’ programme teaches empathy and compassion towards animals and reaches over 200,000 school pupils each year.
We constantly evolve the programme, which fits with the STEM curriculum and is proven to reduce tolerance towards animal cruelty and increase awareness of animal sentience.
Recently, we’ve introduced robotics in classrooms. Children get the opportunity to build an animal-like robot and code it. This allows them to recognise animals are born with senses and how important it is people are aware of these when interacting with them.
This unique approach captures children’s imagination, encourages them to have fun and be creative, and emphasises how amazing animals really are.

Young STEM Leader (YSL)
In its Strategy for STEM Education and Training (2017), the Scottish Government committed to establish ‘a new Young STEM Leader (YSL) programme to stimulate and strengthen the development of peer mentoring and inspiration in STEM for young people by young people.’ The YSL Programme aims to inspire more young people to develop an interest in STEM and pursue the study of STEM subjects and relevant future pathways.
All levels of the programme share key elements and principles such as YSLs delivering STEM activities, events and interactions; challenges stereotypes, misconceptions and outdated views in STEM; and YSLs acting as positive role models. As well as allowing the YSLs to develop important leadership, communication and employability skills, working towards a YSL Award will also motivate young people to progress in STEM studies and perhaps embark on a STEM career. Importantly, this programme aims to promote curiosity in young people, encouraging them to learn about the world around them in a fun and engaging way.
