Marine Science & Environmental
Management iGCSE
Our collaboration with Jake, the Humanatees Tutor, continues as we develop a hybrid learning pathway for young people.
From June 2026 to June 2027, we will be offering Marine Science iGCSE and Environmental Management iGCSE, with Jake delivering a dedicated online course for learners in the Bristol and South West area. Practical workshops for Marine Science will be delivered by the Streams Learning Hub team in the Aquarium and Science Creates. The Environmental Management will be delivered by the team at The Meadow, Bath These practical days will be on their site.
This approach combines online specialist teaching with in person learning, connected to a supportive learning community. Email Jo if you are interested to know more.
To support Jake with the online learning journey, our practical days will be facilitated by the Hub team. Lead for Marine Science is Gaz Lawrence, and Lead for Environmental Management is Claire Imhasly with support from her team at The Meadow.
Live teaching sessions take place weekly on Mondays running from June 2026 to June 2027. All sessions will be recorded for students who can’t attend live.
Marine Science: 10 - 1130am
