Westquarter Primary School

Funding will enable Westquarter Primary School in Falkirk to start an extracurricular STEM club with the ability to deliver coding activities. The club will consist of 10–15 members for a 6–8 week block who will then pass their skills to the next cohort of members on a rolling programme throughout the year. Participants can also work towards becoming Young STEM Leaders as they learn to use – and share their skills and knowledge – about micro:bits, micro:bit Smart Home kits, :MOVE mini Mk2's, and LEGO WeDo. The initiative will be designed to inspire creativity and explore how digital tech, such as micro:bits, could be used in other curricular areas throughout the school.
