Year 10 Engineering Opportunity for International Women’s Day
UK Power Networks have invited up to 30 female students from Year 10 to attend their site in Risby to learn about electricity, distribution and to see their network for International Women’s Day. At just under 17% of the workforce, women are the most underrepresented group in engineering and technology and UK Power Networks want to fill that gap. This is an incredible opportunity for female students interested in Engineering.
Activities will include:
-
Jointing and Fitting exercise
-
First Aid session
-
Networking event with female employees
-
Short circuit street activity.
-
Overhead Line session (going up in the bucket!)
It is going to be an incredible hands-on and busy day, allowing students to learn more about the engineering industry and the roles and responsibilities of staff.
If your student is interested, please email me on tlg@king-ed.suffolk.sch.uk or ask them to visit me in the library.
Places will be first come, first served. However, Year Teams will have final say on attendees.
