Summary

What’s in it for me and my school? 
  • Receive free resource kits (engineering-themed STEM packs) to use with your classes
  • Enhance the provision of STEM learning in your school. A chance to share good practice and work with each of the other teachers. Plus:
  • Access to engineering careers resources, grant and funding opportunities
  • Activities which support teacher assessments and coursework in STEM subjects
  • Improve student progression to STEM subject’s post-16
  • Improve the perception of STEM subjects with under-represented groups  
Some of the biggest challenges we face stem from how we interact with our environment, and engineering is at the heart of finding sustainable solutions. From renewable power to recycling, to making our homes more energy efficient, this is a vital field. Challenges in this STEM resource invite learners to explore some of these important and pressing  problems that we face as a society and to act and think like engineers as they come up with their own solutions to a sustainable innovation design challenge.The sustainable innovation design challenge will form part of a competition where we want to see the sustainable design innovations from teams of students from across the UK. Shortlisted teams will have the opportunity to bring their innovations to life with prizes from the Academy as well as being invited to showcase their work at the Connecting STEM Teachers 10 year celebration event next summer.
The competition will launch in September 2021
This is engineering: Teachers receive a resource guide and individual pupil packs rather than the traditional STEM box. Each pack contains the materials & equipment to engage pupils with stimulating and fun activities.Activities have been designed for Key Stage 2 and 3, teaching children how to think and act like an engineer. If you are unable to attend, please pass this invitation onto Science, DT, Computer Science and Maths teachers and STEM leads who may be available.
