GFG Foundation and Rewise Learning have officially launched in October 2022 a STEM-based education programme for students in the dual learning class at Paul Dimo High School. Students, parents and teachers as well as LIBERTY Galati mentors took part in a fun-filled event at the LIBERTY club on Friday.

At the event, GFG Foundation and Rewise organised a series of educational and engaging exercises aimed at igniting their interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects through practical activities. For instance, students were set the challenge to design and build a car which students then raced against each other, allowing them to develop basic electrical, as well as teamwork and problem-solving skills. The teams with the fastest cars were awarded trophies in recognition of their success. Students also had the opportunity to learn more about GREENSTEEL and the environmental ambitions of LIBERTY Galati.

For the dual programme in Galati, GFG Foundation and Rewise have developed a programme that is endorsed by a UK qualification. The week-long module, to be delivered next spring, will focus on Motivation and Environmental Awareness. The programme is designed to encourage students to pursue STEM subjects and inspire them to become the next generation of Romania’s engineers and electricians.

The 21 students from the Paul Dimo Technical High School dual learning class are supported by the GFG Foundation and LIBERTY Galati with monthly scholarships and bespoke education programmes. Dual education combines the teaching of theoretical knowledge by teachers with practical activities carried out with the help of LIBERTY Galati mentors. During their internships at LIBERTY Galati, the students will learn in a workshop prepared especially for them and will receive protective and work equipment, transport, and food.

GFG Foundations’ partnership with Rewise Learning started in 2017 when the organization designed a bespoke education programme – Geared Up for STEM – to promote and inspire STEM learning for young people throughout Newport, South Wales. Rewise Learning is an award-winning UK creative learning and e-learning provider delivering educational services such as education projects, learning resources, and learning courses.
