Description
Newly appointed Head of Science Gemma Beacon is thinking about setting up a Science and Engineering Club at her school. Having already been to see a successful club in Cornwall, she visits a school closer to home - in Amersham. The Amersham School runs a Science and Engineering Club so popular with students that there is now a waiting list to become a member. Gemma discovers how the club appeals to girls, how it incorporates a long running robotics project, how its focus is cross-curricular and how the support of other departments is part of the key to its success. Gemma identifies seven key concepts that make Amersham's Club exceptional.
