The
idea behind this national scheme is a partnership between schools,colleges
and industry.Students undertaking the projects are required to produce
an original piece of work in the field of science and technology that is
ultimately of real use to their industrial sponsor. Throughout the project
, students are expected to demonstrate knowledge commensurate with 'A'
level or Advanced GNVQ. Most projects require originality, initiative and
hard work on the part of the student.
