Clyst Vale CSI Workshops Evaluation of Crime Scene Scenario Day

The day proved to be a great success for both staff and students all of whom thoroughly enjoyed the CSI's innovative and hands on way of engaging the students in 'real' science. It is fair to say that all the students gained an insight into the science behind forensics but perhaps more importantly the day rekindled the students' interest in science in general. Many staff have commented on the increased enthusiasm for lessons since the day.

The CSI team were extremely well organised and prepared for the day. The pre-visit meeting was essential to the smooth running of the day and I was certainly impressed with the team's willingness to work with the staff at Clyst Vale.

A few comments / observations on the day.

Year 10 dressed in white suits, in the hall all learning, all engaged and on task and all having fun'. Students of all abilities asking question after question about blood spatter patterns & fingerprinting technique. A Principal standing in the hall with a huge grin on his face full of pride. A genuinely impressed science staff on the overall day (and that is saying something!)

I cannot speak highly enough of the CSI Enterprise Education Day led by Steve and Tina French and would recommend any school to book them in the future

We extend our thanks to your team for the enterprise day that you so ably managed. It was a delight to work with such a committed and professional team. They were full of ideas. Indeed it opened up a whole new world -the staff were just as engrossed as the students. A perfect example of how to bring science alive. The students enjoyed the hands-on approach and found the content of the activities stimulating and thought provoking. We would recommend CSI Workshops to any school. Their desire to inform and educate brought real life issues to the classroom that our students found fascinating. Yours sincerely,
Mr. D Irons Senior Teacher

I would like to say that CSI workshops were a big hit in our school. Our attendance was very high for the week that they were there. We decided on a week long event which involved all the school and teachers as suspects. The school had police stations, media teams and scenes of crime officer teams. We had live crime scenes all around the school following an ongoing story which CSI workshops and ourselves worked together on. This forensic week cumulated with an arrest in main assembly from the metropolitan police force. Well done CSI workshops. I would recommend this company to any school and wish them luck with what they are already achieving.
