Explorify is moving to a new home
From 21st September, Explorify will have a new home with STEM Learning, in partnership with the Primary Science Teaching Trust.

It’s an exciting time for primary science! After five years of developing Explorify at Wellcome, from September 21st, Explorify will be run by STEM Learning in partnership with the Primary Science Teaching Trust (PSTT). They will also be supported by The Ogden Trust and the Glasgow Science Centre.
They have exciting plans to help even more teachers like you benefit from the hundreds of free activities and teaching support.
We're excited about this next phase and know that STEM Learning and PSTT will continue to champion primary science and support you as a teacher for years to come. Both are well-known and highly respected in primary science and have been involved in Explorify since launch in 2017. So we know that the future is in great hands!
What does this mean for you?
The Explorify you know and love will still be the same and remain free! You’ll still have access to hundreds of activities with new ones being added. You will also still be able to save activities and mark them as done in your dashboard.
The legal bit and what YOU need to do.
You need to tell us you are happy for us to transfer your account to STEM Learning. Although we will do all the legwork to make sure your account is unchanged, you need to opt-in to have your account transferred before 21st September 2021. If you haven't already done this, give your consent here.
If you don’t agree to the transfer, your account will be deleted and you will have to sign up again. If you agree but later change your mind before 21st September 2021, get in touch at: dataprotection@wellcome.org.
What if I miss the deadline?
If you miss the deadline and find you can’t log in, don’t despair; you will still be able to sign up with a new account, but your original account will have been deleted.
Wellcome has been proud to develop Explorify and is delighted that its future is secure with STEM Learning and the Primary Science Teaching Trust. Thank you for being an Explorify user, we look forward to welcoming you back in September with more activities to enjoy and explore with your class!
