Event description

Maths4Girls - Raising girls' confidence in Maths and STEM related subjects

In this 1 hour session, business leaders will share insights, lessons and tips to motivate and inspire your students to make informed decisions about their future.

Speakers will ‘tell a story’ about their career journey (up to 10mins):
• How maths played a part and how maths is relevant now
• What inspired them to choose their career path
• Their failures, as well as successes
• What their company does and why this is important
• What they enjoy most about their career
• Skills currently relevant in the jobs they are doing now.
Possible tips for girls wanting to study Maths at A-level; range of possibilities when studying a STEM based subject in terms of job opportunities; how did they find as women being interested/involved in Maths.
The aim for this session is to encourage young girls towards STEM based fields and help break the gender stereotypes surrounding Maths related subjects.

Q&As will follow to end the session.
