Here at Williams Education, we are proud to be featured in The Manufacturer’s latest article exploring the impact of our STEM programme and the passionate team working behind it.
In 2025, more than 13,000 students visited our headquarters in Grove to take part in our free,fully-funded Williams STEM Experience Day, with 87% of students leaving more interested in STEM careers and subjects. Through hands-on engineering activities, simulator sessions and a heritage museum tour, students get a real look at what STEM careers can offer and how their ideas can come to life.
By covering the full cost of school transport and offering every element of the day at no charge, we ensure young people from all backgrounds can access explore the excitement of engineering and discover where STEM could take them.
The feature explores how the programme helps young people see how STEM connects to real-world careers, as Katherine Solomon, Head of Education explains:
“Our goal is to inspire students to pursue STEM school subjects and ultimately STEM career paths, be it in Formula 1 or elsewhere. That includes both the need for foundational STEM skills and softer skills like teamwork.”
Alongside this, The Manufacturer explores how the environment at Williams builds confidence by encouraging students to step outside their comfort zone and work collaboratively. As Georgina Phillips, Instructional Design & Delivery Manager, shares:
“Students can arrive feeling unsure, but by the end they’re fully embracing the challenge. When they stand up at the end to present their work, they’re genuinely proud of what they’ve achieved.”
The impact is clear. STEM careers increase from around 50% to over 80% by the end of the day. We are delighted to see our work recognised and remain committed to opening our doors to the next generation of STEM innovators.
