Primary Engineer Rail Programme
We have fully funded places for primary schools to take part in our Rail Programme that provides STEM-based professional development for 2 teachers in your school. This cross-curricular programme allows pupils to build and test their own vehicle models while getting to interact with engineering professionals in class, as well as attending a joint school event as they celebrate their achievements at the end of the programme.
Designed for Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2
The kits come in two levels designed to allow Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 classes to participate in the project.
All teachers on the programme will receive:
Free kit for 30 rail project builds – enough for 60 children working in pairs
One full day training, preparing you to deliver the project in class
A full set of classroom resources and online guides.
Once signed up teachers will receive their training date where they will join the rest of the cohort to learn all the skills required to teach engineering in the classroom. The full-day training is highly practical & informative and aimed at not only providing training but also increased confidence in delivering STEM based whole class projects.
The competition then rounds off with a celebration event at the end of the programme that invites some of your pupils to put their engineering skills to the test against other participating schools.
