STEAM is a learning approach that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics as access points to guide students’ inquiry, dialogue and critical thinking.

Thanks to the developing technology, the traditional working environment is changing and new jobs are emerging every day.

Students are changing the way they learn, connect and interact every day. The skills students develop through STEM provide the foundations for success in school and beyond. In addition, employer demand for STEM qualifications and skills is high and will continue to increase in the future.

Through STEM, students develop core skills, including:
