Year 9 pupils took part in a workshop delivered by HS2 and the Smallpeice Trust. Pupils were introduced to the range of job roles in STEM that HS2 has to offer and had the chance to complete a number of challenges, including designing their own train station and building a sustainable bridge prototype. The winning bridge designs had to hold a heavy weight, with the most successful entries being from Team 1: F. Houghton, J. Keogh, G, Grant and K. Kapoor and Team 2: Y. Rayhaan, J. Gillon, T. Fajimi and D. Earl.
Pupils enjoyed the chance to test their engineering abilities with some requesting more careers days like this in school in future.
