Abstract	Schools in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, funded by a Royal Society Partnership Grant, engaged in an animal behaviour project with a researcher at the University of Oxford's Wildlife Conservation Research Unit. The pupils used camera traps to conduct wildlife surveys and investigate behavioural responses in European badgers ("Meles meles"). The practicalities of collaboration between scientists and a network of primary and secondary schools are discussed. Some qualitative evaluation of the educational benefits and scientific enquiry skills gained is presented, and benefits to schools and researchers of such collaborations are outlined. (As Provided).
