Introduction to Engineering and Manufacturing workshops will be delivered to young people in secondary schools to develop work-related skills for careers in the STEM sector in Wales. Our activities include exciting and challenging practical engineering sessions aimed at Key Stage 3 pupils to contextualise the application and development of employability STEM skills. These i2EM workshops provide a stepping stone at KS3 for pupils to gain experience in STEM prior to their GCSE subject choices.
Our Girls into STEM programme of events aim to encourage female pupils to take an active interest in STEM subjects prior to their GCSE subject choices. Pupils meet employees who discuss their background and roles within the company, have a tour of the site, and the day involves a practical activity. They will be encouraged to relate their observations to their school subjects, particularly STEM, and discuss how their choice of GCSE subjects will influence their own possible career path.
EESW have developed a new space themed workshop suitable for primary school KS2 pupils, with the aim of increasing coding skills. Following an introduction into the history of space exploration and satellites, using a microbit, pupils will create a 2 player game to help them train for the launch of a vital and secret mission, to prove they have the problem-solving skills needed to be a successful "Micronaut", including communication, teamwork and following instructions to learn basic coding.
