We want all young people to get a chance to get hands-on with STEM, to meet and learn about people working in science and engineering careers.
We offer inspiring, curriculum-linked programmes for schools that do that. They also offer opportunities to understand the diverse range of career opportunities available in STEM. Students learn just how many different areas it covers – from climate change and health to music and games.
Tomorrow's Engineers Week

Energy Quest
Energy Quest is a curriculum aligned science lesson for 11 to 13 year olds which introduce students to the concept of 'acting like an engineer’. Students work in teams and use problem solving skills and their science knowledge.
How we make a difference
Our careers resources and programmes help students see they could have a career in STEM and show them the career pathways. They help teachers and careers advisers inform and inspire students, introducing them to role models they can really relate to. We try to make life a bit easier for schools and we offer everything we do free of charge. Plus we work with educators so what we offer really works for you and your students.
Funding for schools
We want more young people to start thinking about a possible future in STEM. So, we offer bursaries to help inspire students who don’t necessarily already have a passion for science or engineering. We particularly hope this funding will help engage young people from groups underrepresented in engineering.
