What we delivered
221 Baker Street, a CSI-style immersive investigation for KS3. Students become detectives and work through evidence to uncover the culprit: carbon monoxide. Developed through 2024 and launched at the start of 2025, it’s now delivered across schools for Cadent, SGN and NRG.
A thrilling mystery with a real-world lesson: students work together to solve a mystery, learning critical safety skills as they piece together clues.
The impact
1,210 students reached.
The session
Engage 11–15 year old students with a free 55-minute whodunnit workshop. We’re booking full-day sessions for 11–15 year olds. Each 55-minute classroom-based workshop supports up to 30 students with in-class teacher supervision. Sessions are led by our DBS-checked Arts Facilitators.
Develops: oracy, teamwork and critical thinking.
Supports: PSHE, Drama and Science curriculum.
For teachers: please keep this a secret from pupils
Pupils take part in a crime scene investigation (a whodunnit-style activity) where they must solve the mystery to identify the “killer”. The twist is that the culprit is carbon monoxide, but this must remain unknown to the pupils. Revealing it beforehand would ruin the experience and undermine the session’s effectiveness.
Learning outcomes: understand what carbon monoxide (CO) is, where it can be found, and how to stay safe from it.
