The F1 in Schools STEM Challenge is a global multi-disciplinary competition, open to all secondary schools in the island of Ireland. It challenges secondary school students to design, build and race miniature compressed air-powered Formula One cars of the future. Student teams will compete against each other in a national championship to determine Irelands best-engineered car, Irelands fastest car, and Ireland National Champions. The challenge inspires students to use IT to learn about physics, aerodynamics, design, manufacture, branding, graphics, leadership, teamwork, media skills, finance and communication while applying them in a practical, exciting and competitive way
As well as facilitating holding the final in 2019 and being due to do this again in 2020 we have assisted local schools in the development of their vehicles.
