F1 in schools

BIS HCMC had one representative at the F1 in schools world championship in summer 2022 - AMM Racing. We will be looking to start this process again in the summer of 2023 with a view to competing again in 2024. 

Watch this space! In the meantime, if you want to find out more, please go have a look at the F1 in Schools World Championship site here. See if you can find AMM Racing!

Plan

I need to stress that this is not a sign-up and you will travel club, you will have to show considerable commitment.

Summer 2023

The club starts. All participants will be expected to have worked through a number of the training videos here, (the same videos are on the classroom). All members need to have the basic skills to produce a car - there will be no leaning on one person to do all the Fusion work!

Autumn 2023

Planning for the BIS Grand Prix will begin. Teams will be built and the wider skills required will be explored. Creating the car is a small section of the overall competition, you have to understand the marketing, the business plan, the graphics and the sustainability as well as the engineering.

Spring 2024

World championship destination will be announced and this will give more momentum to teams. The planning for the BIS Grand Prix will begin. The BIS Champions will be crowned at the end of the Spring term before year 11's go on study leave.

Summer 2024

IGCSEs! But once they are completed the BIS team can come back in and work on their car and any enhancements they want to make. A new intake of students will occur.

Autumn 2024

For the year 12's: Final preparations and then off to the world championships. Once back you have a ready-made CAS experience mentoring the younger students.

For the year 11's: See above for the cycle.

If you have got this far and you are still interested, sign up for the CCA and I look forward to seeing you in 109.
