Forensic Workshop for Young Scientists

Science students from across the year groups got a taste of crime scene investigation in a forensic science workshop led by Gill from The Education Group.

The sessions began with some discussion of theory and principles before they were put into practice with a small scale crime scene simulation. The test scene made use of many of the principles discussed, including footprint, fingerprint and DNA analysis, allowing students to follow logical scientific processes to correctly identify their criminal perpetrator!

Well done to all of the students involved for their excellent engagement in the sessions.
