Tomorrow's Engineers Week took place 11 to 15 November. This year’s theme was Power up your passion, showing young people how their passions and interests could lead to careers in engineering and technology.

A record 55,544 young people engaged with our content for schools during the week, including an assembly, lesson plans, videos and activities.

Four inspiring videos featuring an average day in the lives of a Design and Manufacturing T Level student, a Civil Engineering Degree Apprentice, a Graduate Operations Engineer and a Broadcast Technical Operator, showed young people exactly what they could be doing in the future.

Throughout the week, hundreds of companies and organisations shared their stories about how their passions led to careers in engineering and technology.

Thank you to everyone who took part to help make the week a big success!
