Things they can really get their teeth into, helping them see the real-world potential of subjects they may be disengaged with. We're talking about vlogging, music production, graphic design, viral videos, online money management and even setting up digital businesses. your pupils already have the tools to do all of these things. In fact, they use them everyday. We are here to show them the skills, helping them gain financial independence and social mobility, They could even use what they discover to change the world.

We need more engineers. For that we need more young people to understand how what they learn at school is used in the real world. Giving young people the chance to talk directly to engineers and engage in hands-on activities that showcase and contextualise engineering is at the heart of the Tomorrow's Engineers approach.

Toolkit: SEND Competition activity

Competition activity is a great way to raise aspirations, improve learners skills and employment prospects, strengthen learning programmes and introduce an element of excitement into the vocational curriculum.  While competition activity is relatively well-established as a feature of the curriculum at higher levels, it is less commonly used with learners at Entry level and Level 1.  However, providers who have been exploring the use of competition with learners with SEND report that it is just as beneficial for their learners – and easy to implement. This toolkit provides you with a range of resources that will help you to embed competition activity into your curriculum in a way that enthuses both staff and learners.  It also gives you some tips on getting employers involved. The toolkit includes: an overarching guidebook an introductory video  sample competition briefs and marking schemes competition brief and marking scheme templates learner self-assessment and personal planning templates an invitation letter for employers template.
