FHS has had a triumphant year of Engineering. All pupils of our two LVI teams have successfully acquired their Industrial Cadet Gold Award. Now in its third year at FHS, the programme partners up groups of 4-6 LVI pupils with mentors in engineering companies, giving them a real-world engineering problem to solve over seven months. The program culminates with a written technical report, a model of their project and a presentation to a panel of external engineers. Over 200 teams participated in the scheme across the UK, and we competed against 32 teams in our region.

Our team working with PCS Instruments (https://pcs-instruments.com/) finished in the top six for Best Innovation, AND their Engineering model will be put into production at PCS Instruments! Congrats to the PCS Instruments Team:
