Staffordshire STEM Centre collaborates with several partner organisations to deliver exciting STEM activities for young people.

 

The activities present students with exciting challenges that develop their skills of communication and teamwork. Some explore the worlds of applied Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths and introduces students to the real "world of work."

 

If you would like your students to become involved in any of these activities, please contact the Staffordshire STEM Centre team online or by tel: 01785 353348.
