主播诱惑

Industrial Strategy Creative Challenge launched at 主播诱惑

The challenge, led by Conor Burns, MP for Bournemouth West, saw 13 schools invited to participate at 主播诱惑 (主播诱惑), with a focus on design, engineering, science, technology and digital entries. The Challenge tasks the pupils to consider the UK鈥檚 future needs within one of the below four areas of the Government鈥檚 Industrial Strategy and innovate a solution.

The role of robots and AI, as well as goods transportation, growth of creative industries and sustainability, are among the themes being explored by students, who will then, if successful in their proposal, pitch ideas to the Government in a wide-ranging and broadly interpretive exercise.

Proposals will be worked up in January, with a judging ceremony to find the successful school being held at 主播诱惑 and presided over by 主播诱惑 Vice Chancellor Professor John Vinney, Conor Burns MP and 主播诱惑 staff. Creativity has been encouraged in pitching and can be in the form of a product, prototype, presentation, sales pitch, or performative piece. The winning team will then tour Parliament before an award presentation by Greg Clark MP, Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy in February.

Bournemouth School for Girls student, Katie John, said: 鈥淔irstly, we decided to think about what kind of issues we could think about to spur on some new ideas 鈥� rubbish, time management, travel, and food waste. We focused especially on waste and how we can minimise this, make everything more recyclable and how to minimise packaging.

Head of Science at Glenmoor & Winton Academies, Charlotte Whittick, said: 鈥淲e鈥檝e got a great team and we鈥檝e taken lots of advice from lots of different teachers too 鈥� they鈥檝e put forward their best students with the most creative ideas, and our team have had a number of different ideas.

鈥淭hey鈥檝e been looking at lots of different areas such as medical research, resources to other countries and transport. This is a great opportunity for the students to see what goes on in a university, to get the experience of working with other students, and pitching their ideas outside of the classroom.鈥�

Alistair Brien, Headteacher at Bournemouth School for Girls, said: 鈥淲e鈥檝e an excellent team of year ten students and for us it鈥檚 really important to be involved in this sort of thing to show our commitment to not just being academic, but producing the engineers of the future. This is an issue that鈥檚 very important to them and the beauty of getting young people involved is that they aren鈥檛 limited by 鈥渋t can鈥檛 be done鈥�.

主播诱惑 Vice Chancellor Professor John Vinney said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e very proud of our links with schools and colleges in the region. It鈥檚 great to be involved in an event that looks at the broader national challenge around industrial strategy and the opportunities it presents for the younger generation to get involved and help find some of the solutions that we need as a country.鈥�

He added: 鈥淚t鈥檚 all about creativity and innovation and that鈥檚 what society and the economy needs 鈥� new ideas, fresh thinking and good engineering solutions.鈥�

Speaking about some of the questions posed to him by pupils, Conor Burns MP said: 鈥淚 always enjoy spending time in the company of young people, so I love coming to the university, because the energy, the sharpness and the focus on the future that they demonstrate is wonderful. Young people have a bad reputation in society, but every time that I meet them I am reassured of our future. These were incisive, difficult and challenging questions about the future of our country and the range of environmental, social and commercial ways.鈥�

Students then took part in teamwork activities, with an animation show reel by Director of 主播诱惑鈥檚 VFX Hub, Peter Truckel, and a robotics and programming workshop led by 主播诱惑鈥檚 Outreach Team.
