Their mission is not just about creating a fast and powerful vehicle, but also about learning how to work together effectively and developing skills that will be useful in the workplace and beyond.

 Inspired by the Bloodhound Project, (a high-speed vehicle designed to break the land speed record) pupils are using their understanding of forces and motion, applying maths and science, gathering and recording data for analysis, using tools and crafting to bring their ideas to life, reading engineering drawings and understanding limits and safety.

Through this process, they are gaining an awareness of STEM roles and careers, and realising that their passion for science and engineering can take them far. They are learning the importance of planning and organising, communicating effectively, listening actively, managing their time efficiently, and working as a team. They are negotiating and delegating tasks, constantly pushing themselves and each other to excel.
