EDT's aim is to increase interest in STE(A)M careers (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths) through a variety of engaging and dynamic programmes for ages 9-21 that replicate experiences found in the workplace. Some examples include industry mentored projects, school activity days, specialised taster courses and industrial placements. All these programs work to develop students’ teamwork, problem solving, communication, digital skills, numeracy and project management - increasing the confidence and employability of young people.   For more information about the Insight into University Programme and the Year in Industry Placement click on the posters above. Please note, there is a charge for some programmes.  Funding may be available for students who meet certain criteria.  To apply for funding please send an email to careers@theappletonschool.org.
