Aim Higher - Focus on Science
Three hundred Year 10 students attend a science fair at Barnsley College. Organised by Aimhigher, the fair hosts workshops from a variety of universities and lecturers.
Sheffield Hallam University introduces the students to a murder mystery game in which a suspiciously stained T-shirt is analysed, while the University of Huddersfield's focus is on beauty products, allowing pupils to make their own.
The idea of the fair is to encourage students to consider studying science at university, but will it succeed?
