STEM is a focus on Science , Technology, Engineering and Maths in schools.
STEM is important because it pervades every aspect of our lives. Science is everywhere in the world around us. Technology is continuously expanding into every aspect of our lives. Engineering is the basic designs of roads and bridges, but also tackles the challenges of changing global weather and environmentally-friendly changes to our homes. Maths is in every occupation and every activity we do in our lives.
The Curious Minds Awards gives our school the chance to not only develop STEM learning and engagement, but also to receive recognition for the amazing work completed in STEM. In 2023 we will be applying for our 15th Curious Mind Award ( formerly named the Plaque of STEM). Our entry to the Curious Mind Award will cover Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths and STEM Show and Tell.
By exposing our students to STEM and giving them opportunities to explore STEM-related concepts, they will become innovative & critical thinkers. Their maths and science skills will also benefit through this hands-on, experimental learning.
