Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education is an interdisciplinary or integrated approach to learning these subjects. Students gain and apply knowledge, deepen their understanding and develop creative and critical thinking skills within an authentic context. It may include inquiry and project-based learning.

- future technologies.
Our school provides students with the opportunity to develop and deepen their knowledge of STEM by engaging students in interactive lessons utilising the latest technologies.

At our Jesmond Campus, students are exposed to a variety of subjects designed to meet both curriculum requirements and to create upstanding citizens for our society who can effectively adapt to today’s changing technological environment.
