Last week, our Year 7 students took part in an exciting and forward‑thinking project designed to spark innovation and environmental awareness. Their challenge was to design an app that encourages people to act against climate change- an issue that continues to shape conversations around the world.
After developing their ideas, over 700 LiFE MAT students had the unique opportunity to pitch their climate‑action app concepts to industry experts via live Zoom call sessions. These pitches were followed by personalised feedback, giving students valuable insight into both the strength of their ideas and the effectiveness of their presentation skills.
Many students described the experience as a significant confidence booster. The project not only encouraged critical thinking and teamwork but also allowed them to express their creativity and explore the design process in a hands‑on, meaningful way.
We are incredibly proud of the imagination, passion, and commitment shown by our young innovators. Their enthusiasm for tackling real‑world challenges is truly inspiring and highlights the power of student voice in shaping a better future.
