I also think this would be a wonderful idea!

Before this module, I didn’t know much about aquaculture beyond fish farming. It gave me a much better understanding of how important the industry is in Ireland and the role it plays in producing sustainable food while supporting coastal communities. I also found the idea of Social License interesting because it showed that industries need to work responsibly and build trust with local communities by protecting the environment.

I think the videos and classroom resources would be easy to use with primary pupils. They would fit well into Science and Geography lessons, especially when exploring habitats, food production and sustainability. I also like that they encourage pupils to ask questions, investigate ideas and discuss different viewpoints rather than just learning facts.

Overall, I think learning about aquaculture and Social License will help children understand where their food comes from and why it is important to look after our marine environment. The resources are practical, engaging and something I could definitely see myself using as part of a cross-curricular STEM unit in the classroom
