Construction in the Classroom with Willmott Dixon

Willmott Dixon has developed a programme of STEM challenges and educational activities for schools that encourage pupils to engage with STEM topics related to construction. The challenges and resources have been developed with a partner school and are linked to the new National Curriculum. Included in the many opportunities available for schools are:

STEM CHALLENGES: STEM Challenges provide context and fun to the Science, Maths, Design and Technology curriculum and support numeracy and literacy.

ACTIVITIES ON SITE: Site visits are a great opportunity for pupils to and their teachers to see the building process of projects in their neighbourhood.

EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES: Willmott Dixon provide the resources to conduct teacher led tasks such as a 'Sustainability Writing Task' which is prefaced by a workshop delivered by the experienced team from Willmott Dixon.
