DETI:
An inspirational science education at primary school is vital for society - boosting the future of our Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) industries and a thriving UK society and economy. That's why the new Centre for Digital Engineering Technology and Innovation , based at UWE Bristol's Department for Engineering Design and Mathematics<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fblogs.uwe.ac.uk%2Fengineering%2F&data=02%7C01%7CLaura.Foggrogers%40uwe.ac.uk%7Cedee3e64b7b24d74e7bb08d81e893d31%7C07ef1208413c4b5e9cdd64ef305754f0%7C0%7C0%7C637292922066205895&sdata=KTLYwVXJI0FYDFi6dAbUqD5mmkMBbdlc3feuBk9XP2M%3D&reserved=0>, is investing in the future of children in the West of England region, by supporting primary STEM education.
Many children will have no knowledge of adults who work or have worked in STEM careers, which gives them very little science capital. Science capital is based on the idea of social capital - that all of us have differing amounts of cultural beliefs, values, qualifications and experiences, which we gather from our families and lives, and determine our value in careers and social situations - in relation to science. This can have a significant impact on children's aspirations regarding STEM careers, as children's attitudes towards STEM are largely formed before age 13.
The new DETI Inspire project will bring together people who inspire primary STEM learning, including primary school teachers, science communicators, education providers, and people working in STEM industries like STEM Ambassadors<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphicscience.co.uk%2Fstem-support%2Fstem-ambassadors%2F&data=02%7C01%7CLaura.Foggrogers%40uwe.ac.uk%7Cedee3e64b7b24d74e7bb08d81e893d31%7C07ef1208413c4b5e9cdd64ef305754f0%7C0%7C0%7C637292922066205895&sdata=Seb0%2FaE1QnMbSrssWu58TnTKh45%2FUdJ5xUFiRt92uV8%3D&reserved=0>.
