Dear PMG Member

We have a range of really exciting activities and events coming up in the new year, running up to the end of the summer term, where we would really appreciate some input and support from you.

Our Mission is to ‘transform lives through learning’ by facilitating a high quality, aspirational experience that ignites confidence and expands opportunities within STEAM related industries.  We want you to play an active part in our future and within the development of our students.

In order to implement this, we would love to invite you in to support at the following events:

Tuesday Talks:

Every Tuesday we have been inviting a range of speakers to talk to our sixth form and year 11 students about future career opportunities.  If you would like to reach out to the future workforce of STEM related careers please get in touch with us

Projects:

We are always on the lookout for inspiring projects to embed into our curriculum, particularly for our Digital Technology and Engineering courses that we offer as early as year 7.  If you have any project ideas or have previously run a project with another school, we would love to hear from you

Work Experience:

We are in the process of making arrangements for Year 10 and Year 12 work experience for Summer 2022

We are offering students the opportunity to partake in a placement 13th – 17th June 2022 for one week.

Students will be drafting placement request letters over the next few weeks in preparation to send out later this year.

If you are in a position to offer a (or multiple placements) of face-to-face placement opportunity at your company please confirm by replying to this email and we will get students to approach you with a request letter.

We are really looking forward to working with you in the new year and hoping for the doors to open again fully post the Christmas madness, to create some fantastic network opportunities for our students

If you require any further information or are able to engage in any of the mentioned about please do not hesitate to get in touch

Wishing you a very merry, safe and fun Festive Christmas
