Ask a scientist
Join ZSL live online, from your classroom or from home, and allow your secondary school students to meet a ZSL expert.
These free interactive, online chats, are run during Biology Week (October) and British Science Week (March) each year.
Our early career scientists will describe their experiences working in conservation science, discussing topics such as the process of scientific investigation or how the decisions they've made (which subjects to study, what work experience is necessary) have helped to get them to this point.
A key component of these sessions is the opportunity for your students to ask their own questions and ask what is important to them (whether that be careers advice, questions about conservation or whether fieldwork is as glamorous as it looks on TV!)
