CERN Education

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is one of the world’s largest and most respected centres for scientific research. Its business is fundamental physics, finding out what the Universe is made of and how it works.

The CERN education website offers information about teacher programmes and educational resources for schools.

Teacher programmes: CERN offers courses for physics teachers in English or in your mother tongue, lasting between 3 days and 3 weeks. You will experience the atmosphere of frontier research at the LHC, meet with scientists and teaching colleagues, and find new ideas on bringing modern physics into the classroom.

Teaching resources: Find presentations, recorded lectures, teaching materials, movies, animations, games, posters, photos, games and ideas for practical activities in the classroom. All this material is available for free when used for educational purposes.
