CIOB - Construction Youth Trust Launches Budding Brunels scheme
The Construction Youth Trust (CYT) is set to
launch the ‘Budding Brunels’ pilot scheme and is looking for support
from charitable trusts and industry bodies.
The Budding Brunels project is an opportunity to excite and inform
pupils in Year 12 (aged 16-17) about the building and engineering
professions.
Michael Brown deputy chief executive of the Chartered Institute of
Building (CIOB) said, “If you ask a school pupil to name a famous
builder or engineer most of them would say Brunel, and yet he was
born over 200 years ago. We clearly need to do more as an industry
to give younger people greater understanding of the exciting
opportunities in building and engineering.”
The CYT project involves weekly sessions of 1 – 2 hours held during
the school term but outside school hours, although some topics will
be connected within General Studies.
“It’s fantastic to see so many of London’s schoolchildren, girls and
boys, taking this opportunity to discover how rewarding a career in
civil engineering and construction can be.” says Jacki Bell director
Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) London.
Participating students will take part in a number of activities such
as trips to construction and engineering sites. There will be visits
to working museums, heritage sites and university materials testing
laboratories. As well as presentations on exciting projects from
across the globe and classroom activities exploring building and
engineering principles.
The Trust seeks support for this project from charitable trusts and
industry bodies. In addition, companies will be encouraged to get
involved. This may included a financial contribution towards the
costs of the project, involvement with schools in their region,
taking part in presentations and activities and sending
representatives to accompany students on visits.
For further information please contact Mark Bennett, Construction
Youth Trust on tel: 020 7227 4566 or at postal address 55 Tufton
Street, London SW1P 3QL.
