STELAR stands for Science and Technology through Educational Links with Amateur Radio.

STELAR was formed in 1993 to promote radiocommunication studies and make a contribution to teachers continuing professional development within schools and colleges. It is a registered charity that aims to link amateur radio with schools and so provide an enriched science and technology curriculum. We also hope to give educators a greater understanding of electronic communications as this is a topic that now appears in the Applied Science section of the latest version of the Key Stage 4 National Curriculum in Science.

Our Aims:

• To promote an interest in the science and technology of wireless communications in young people.

• To encourage members of the teaching profession to use amateur radio in school to further their teaching of science and technology.

• To provide education and training for educators in the science and technology of wireless communications.
