Mr. Barry Convey:

An advertising campaign would address the attitudes towards STEM and inform both parents and primary-school teachers about what STEM is, what the STEM subjects are and the skill set developed by engaging with STEM. That needs to be rolled out across all curriculums in primary. There are examples such as the BBC Micro:bit and Microsoft MakeCode. Students are not being exposed to that at a young age when they are like sponges and when they can be influenced and given the opportunity to really become interested and develop a flair for the STEM subjects.
