What is the project?

Whytrig School, led by Julie Kelly, has secured AEF funding for a Lego intervention to support disadvantaged students. This hands-on, engaging programme fosters confidence, teamwork, and emotional expression while providing an equitable in-school opportunity for those lacking access to extracurricular activities.

 

How will learners benefit?

Proven to boost attendance, reduce anxiety, and develop STEM skills, the initiative ensures disadvantaged learners can succeed, build self-belief, and explore future career possibilities in a fun and supportive environment.
