We’re excited to launch our new partnership with Howden, giving S2 pupils hands on experience of the engineering industry and the career opportunities it offers.

The first session saw pupils from Dumbarton Academy, Trinity High School and Renfrew High School take part in a factory tour before putting their skills to the test in an engineering challenge to design and create their own parachutes.

It’s been a brilliant start to the programme, with plenty more to come!

A big thank you to the Howden team for making this new partnership possible.

This month we hosted, in partnership with Howden, a Teacher Insight Day at their factory in Renfrew. Teachers from schools around the West Region were invited along for talks and tours of the facility.

Thank you to all of the teachers who came along & everyone at Howden who helped to organise and run the event!
