  • Hello,
    Wow! To hear students speak with such confidence and detailed knowledge of their classroom activities is very encouraging.
    During this interview reference was made to the 'boring stuff normally done at school, like science and maths'. It’s worth noting that these students have in fact learnt lots about Science, Math and English, along with the importance and relevance of these studies. These students have formed valuable mentor partnerships with industry and can now see the link between rewarding careers and school learning activities they enjoy. All this due to the action learning activity and intrinsic motivation delivered through the F1 in Schools project.
    Well done Lee Miller and the TRS team!!
