- Additional information
- The novel and longitudinal approach to systemic change outlined by this research has underpinned the NUSTEM outreach, education and widening participation work with over 128 schools and 16000 primary and early years children and 17,947 key influencers across five Local Authorities in North East England for the last 6 years. Led to 20 public engagement projects attracting in excess of £1.1million of external funding (including STEM Learning, STFC, Tony Platten, Reece Foundation, UK Space Agency). Influenced the design of North of Tyne Combined Authority's STEM & Digital Skills Programme comprising £1.25million over three years from 2019 onwards.
