Over the last few years we have had different groups of students do the Youth STEMM Awards as their elective. For this award, they are doing a lot of work in the different STEMM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths and Medicine).
There were 4 different strands they worked towards: 'Inspiring the next generation', 'Engaging the public', 'Developing your skills and knowledge' and 'Shaping your future'. All the students have worked really hard on the activities and resources they developed and all the different skills and research that they have done to gain the required knowledge. On this website you will see a selection of all the things they have done in the last year towards this award.
Last year a range of students participated in different competitions like Teen Tech Award, Oxford University Ethics Competition, Instructables Build-A-Tool Contest, Salters Changemakers Competition and different Essay Competitions.
You can also follow some groups on instagram: the 'stemmstars' with a weekly quiz and the 'stemm_asters' with their podcasts and activities they have done (like running the 'Eggineering' activity on our Enrichment day for y7 and 8 students).
