The Real Forensics Murder Mystery

A man is found dead in a secluded car park on the outskirts of a town. The death is treated as suspicious and investigated by teams of pupils representing crime scene investigators. Critical thinking skills will be tested to the full!

Pupils must analyse crime scenes, conduct forensic tests, interpret evidence and scrutinise statements made by suspects. They will use techniques spanning the ages of detection, from fingerprinting through to DNA fingerprinting and analysis. As the complex story unfolds pupils must ensure they work together to analyse all the information in order to draw a conclusion that fits the evidence!

"A great day! The activities captivated the children - wonderful to see them so engaged. Superb value for money!"
Emily Hazell, G&T Coordinator, Shenley Brook End School
