Developing 21st century skills through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) education
The future of employment is changing rapidly with many industries requiring a cross disciplinary approach to ensure they are competitive in this era of globalisation. Education plays a crucial role in ensuring that our students have the 21st century skills and digital capabilities to meet the challenges required of a future work force. At Yeronga State High School, STEM is taught in a cross disciplinary approach. Our STEM curriculum focuses on real-world problem solving through project-based and inquiry-based learning.
