We are looking to run an extra-curricular club for children, working towards participation in the Lego League finals in Cornwall. Because 41% of our pupils live in the most deprived 0-30% of Lower Super Output Areas in England compared to 24% on average nationally, we will be targeting our disadvantaged children and girls, bringing them into this exciting arena which opens their eyes to the many opportunities in STEM occupations. Taking part in the Lego League will expose them to design, build and program their LEGO robot in order to use it to complete a series of missions. They will have to research an annual theme, design a solution and develop a presentation. The children will also be expected to demonstrate the LEGO League Core Values which include innovation, teamwork, inclusion, impact, fun, discovery and respect. We believe that involvement in this event will be very beneficial to our children and give them the confidence they need to navigate our increasingly digital world effectively and successfully. This event will be part of our extra curricular club offering. Children will be invited to attend the club so no registration is needed.
