The Successful Launch of the LegoLincs Programme: Inspiring the Next Generation of STEM Learners

The LegoLincs Programme, created by LiNCHigher, has had an amazing start this academic year, bringing hands-on STEM learning to schools across Lincolnshire. Aimed at Year 9 students, the programme has been a big hit, with both students and teachers loving the sessions. Many schools have even asked for more workshops, keen to give their students more chances to explore STEM in a fun and interactive way.

Bringing STEM to Life Through Lego

LegoLincs is all about getting students excited about STEM while also building important skills like resilience, teamwork, and creative thinking. During the sessions, students work together to build and programme Lego machines, using them to tackle different challenges.

These activities give students a chance to think like engineers and problem-solvers, making learning hands-on and engaging. LEGO is the perfect tool for this—it makes STEM subjects feel approachable and exciting, even for students who might not have thought about STEM as a future career option.

A Huge Hit in Schools

Since its launch, LegoLincs has received fantastic feedback from both students and teachers. Schools love how interactive and engaging the sessions are, and even senior leaders have dropped in to see the fun in action. Many students have said the sessions made them feel more confident in STEM subjects, and they loved working together to improve their designs.

What’s Next? More Schools, More STEM!

Because of its huge success, LiNCHigher is already planning to expand LegoLincs to even more schools in 2025. The goal is to keep inspiring young minds with hands-on STEM experiences that are both fun and educational.

With so many schools eager to take part, the future of LegoLincs looks brighter than ever. The hope is that more students will discover a passion for STEM, helping to bridge the skills gap and encourage the next generation of engineers, scientists, and innovators.

Final Thoughts

The LegoLincs Programme has proven just how powerful interactive, hands-on learning can be in getting students excited about STEM. With more sessions on the way, LiNCHigher is looking forward to making an even bigger impact—one LEGO brick at a time!
