BACKGROUND - WHY STEM ?
Change in required skills in Hunter Region reflecting manufacturing and heavy industry downturn.
Changing workforce
Blue collar White collar
Trade skills Advanced Manufacturing Skills
Students require different skill sets for employment in the region now than they did 10 years ago.
STEM initiatives in schools help develop these skills

STEM AT MGHS
True cross faculty collaboration
In 2014/15 Science, Mathematics,
Industrial Arts faculties.
In 2016 incorporating TAS / Computing
faculties as well.
Shift is NOT just teaching Science, Maths
Engineering and Technology in one subject
but integrating them.

RATIONALE
Practical integrated approach
Engineering and technology being used to drive
interest in Science and Mathematics
Development of advanced technical skills and
mechanical engineering knowledge.
Overall aim is to increase the numbers of students
studying STEM based subjects in the senior school
and ultimately the number of students matriculating in
the STEM areas.
