Opportunity for STEM, recycling and repair project for Dover Schools

The project will last for four weeks in each school with up to five schools per area taking part at the same time.

This will be running in the Dover area in Term 1 of the next academic year.

Initial engagement activities include a fully funded STEM activity (Team Repair) for a year group (within years 5 to 9) worth up to £1,800 (based on 180 students). Schools will be provided with bins to collect as many recyclable and repairable small electricals as possible within the four-week period.

Local schools will work together to compete against other ‘cluster areas’ to win prizes for most electricals repaired and most recycled. To achieve the repair element, each cluster will work alongside local repair cafes to organise a repair event in each cluster. This is a great opportunity for up to 25 schools to meet one of their climate action plan targets, develop STEM skills among students and build an awareness of recycling and repair opportunities, while increasing local recycling rates.
