People Power

People Power was an innovative school-centred art and technology programme that ran from 2012 – 2018 and was designed to strike a creative spark in pupils, bringing STEM topics alive.

People Power:

−      Used the skills of carefully selected artists and partners to engage children with science, technology, engineering and sustainability
−      Provided hands-on opportunities that harnessed and created technological solutions to real, everyday challenges
−      Developed key skills and raised attainment
−      Projects were individually designed with secondary schools

Over 350 children at secondary schools in Hackney and Tower Hamlets participated in the People Power art and technology programme.

Supported by Bloomberg.
