STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. STEM is important because it pervades every part of our lives. Science is everywhere in the world around us. Technology is continuously expanding into every aspect of our lives. Engineering is the basic designs of roads and bridges. Mathematics is in every occupation, every activity we do in our lives. By exposing pupils to STEM and giving them opportunities to explore STEM related concepts, they will develop a passion for it and hopefully pursue a job in a STEM field.
Here in Seven Pillars, we follow the national UK STEM curriculum and we aim to integrate the STEM system in all our core subjects, plus a number of school activities, projects and after school clubs.
STEM Clubs are a powerful and enjoyable way to engage our pupils with science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects. They ignite an interest in STEM subjects and provide a platform to extend young people's learning.
