Dear Learning Zone user,
We are planning major updates and improvements to the Learning Zone because we
know that some parts of it are not as up to date or accurate as we would like.
Meanwhile, we hope that you still find it useful and exciting. If you have any
queries or suggestions, please contact us on
bnscinfo@bnsc.gsi.gov.uk.

We live on a planet called Earth. Earth is in space and is part of the 'Solar System'. The reason it's called this is because at the centre of the system is the Sun and 'solar' means 'Sun'.
The Learning Zone is designed to support teaching and learning across the whole curriculum.
Over 15,000 people work in the space industry. Find out how you could become one of them.
Resources to support teachers. Worksheets and lesson plans for Key Stages 1 to 4.
