Virgin Money STEMTastic 2024 Maths Week FREE Online Workshops

Join colleagues from Virgin Money to celebrate Scottish Maths Week with this one day series of maths and finance based workshops and career panels for primary and secondary aged students.

The theme for Scottish Maths Week this year is "Maths Tales".
STEMTastic is a FREE online annual event that aims to inform school-age pupils interested in STEM subjects of future career opportunities in banking, finance and IT within Virgin Money. They are holding two workshops and a careers panel focused on maths and finance careers.

The event is aimed at Young people aged between 9-18 years old. Schools and home school students are welcome to join us for all or part of the day.

All sessions will be hosted live on Microsoft Teams, and can be streamed either directly to the pupils' computers or to the front of your classroom.

A moderated Questions and Answers panel will be available to pose your questions live to presenters to be answered in the session.
