Siemens Energy have been partners of our Leaders Award Competition for the last few years, and they have inspired countless pupils through engineering.⚡ One way they have worked with us this year is to create this incredible video for the participating schools in the Cumbria region! So join Rebekah, Poppy and Jess as they show us why STEM is important to them! 😇 For any teachers still waiting to submit their entries we still have FREEPOST available so get in touch today to send them to us before the end of the spring term >>> 📧 info@primaryengineer.com 📞 01282 502700 Natasha Kinnear Louisa Parsons Susan Scurlock MBE Mike Jeschke #EngineersInTheMaking

We were blown away by the pupils of South Lanarkshire yesterday! 🤯 They joined us in East Kilbride for our Celebration Event with SSE plc as pupils put their engineering skills to the test! The models they built had to pass a series of challenges, and they had to showcase their engineering knowledge in interviews. The communication, designs and enthusiasm was inspiring ⭐ Our Partnership with SSE has seen us work with 𝟯𝟬 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 across South Lanarkshire last year, another 𝟯𝟬 this year and 𝟯𝟬 more next year - that's over 𝟱𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗽𝘂𝗽𝗶𝗹𝘀 getting a hands-on experience of engineering in the classroom. 💪 I wonder how many engineers they have helped inspire...
