Learning Sectors is back and even better!
Supported by Formula 1, Learning Sectors connects your pupils with a partner school in the UK while building STEM knowledge and improving their real-world communication, presenting and spoken skills.
Building on our exciting first year that reached over 150,000 young people across more than 700 schools worldwide, the programme brings schools together to tackle real-world STEM challenges and develop real-world communication skills!
Communicating science and engineering is as important as understanding it and through its global broadcasting platform, Formula 1 shows how clear, confident communication brings STEM to life for audiences worldwide.
For this year, Learning Sectors includes a new, exciting, enhanced focus on oracy and communication skills, supporting current school priorities around developing pupils’ ability to collaborate effectively and communicate with confidence.
Alongside their STEM learning, students will take part in activities that build these skills, from discussing ideas with international partners to presenting their thinking and solutions. Inspired by the fast-paced, team-based environment of Formula 1, this integrated approach helps pupils develop the communication skills they need for future learning, careers and global collaboration.
During the programme, schools will identify an issue in their community and work with a partner school to come up with a solution, using STEM skills to tackle a real-world challenge and make a positive change.
- Engage learners through using STEM skills for practical challenges
- Enhance their ability to speak about science and tech with confidence
- Broaden their horizons through working with a school in another country
- Inspire students with real examples of STEM in action from Formula 1
