Since receiving the brief last year, the students have spent months developing their prototype through teamwork, problem-solving, and technical skill. Their final presentation impressed everyone in attendance and showcased the professionalism, creativity, and engineering expertise developed throughout their T Level studies.
Powerday’s support throughout the project was invaluable. Their team provided guidance, feedback, and industry insight that helped students develop their work to a professional standard. In recognition of their achievements, students received certificates and were invited back on site for further learning opportunities with Powerday’s engineers and ground delivery team.
John O’Dwyer, Associate Director Environmental Sustainability at Powerday, said:
“We were blown away by the level of thought, ingenuity, and engineering that went into the prototype conveyor belt systems for our sector and by how closely the working models resembled our own systems. It is a real testament to the work the college is doing, and to how confidently and professionally the students presented their work.”
Partnerships with employers such as Powerday play a vital role in preparing students for the future workforce. These collaborations provide valuable hands-on experience, exposure to real working environments, and opportunities to apply classroom learning to practical industry challenges. Experiences such as this help students build confidence, develop employability skills, and pursue successful careers within the engineering sector.
The partnership highlights the positive impact of industry collaboration and the outstanding potential of young people when given opportunities to apply their knowledge in real-world environments. The students represented Stanmore College with pride, confidence, and professionalism, demonstrating that the future of engineering is bright.
Special thanks were also given to the dedicated teachers, technicians, and placement team whose commitment and support helped make the project such a tremendous success.
