Model Rocket Kits, Motors & Launch Equipment — Shipped from the UK

Rocketry for Schools is a UK supplier of model rockets, rocket motors and launch equipment for schools, scout and cadet groups, clubs and individual enthusiasts. We hold stock in the North West and dispatch across the UK, so you're not waiting on overseas shipping or paying import fees. Schools and colleges can order on purchase order — just get in touch.

Everything you need for a first flight is here, genuine Klima rocket motors with igniters included, launch pads, parachutes, and building supplies. New to the hobby? A complete starter set gives you a rocket, launch pad and controller in one box — just add motors.

Built for the classroom

Model rocketry is one of the clearest ways to teach physics you can actually see. A single launch demonstrates Newton's third law, `F = ma` and the SUVAT equations in a few seconds of flight. Our class packs come in bulk sets of 5 or 10, pair with a free downloadable lesson plan, and suit ages 8+ with supervision. They're used in UK schools, STEM clubs and enrichment days.

Genuine motors, shipped legally

Rocket motors are classed as dangerous goods in the UK. We ship every motor in line with ADR regulations and sell only to adults over 18. Our motors are genuine Klima (classes A–D), giving consistent, repeatable thrust and reliable ejection for parachute recovery. If you're unsure which motor suits your rocket, our motor guide explains the letter/number codes in plain English.

Help before and after you buy

We're a small business and we answer the phone. Not sure what to order for a class of thirty, or which kit suits a Scout group versus a GCSE physics set? Call 0161 706 1729 or email admin@rocketryforschools.co.uk and you'll speak to someone who flies these rockets. Our guides and blogs cover motor storage, the UK safety code and how temperature affects performance.
