Enthuse Projects

DTSA works on Enthuse Partnerships in conjunction with employers and STEM Learning.  If you would like to be one of these employers and fund one of our projects in the East Midlands then please contact Finance@DTSA.org.uk.

ENTHUSE Partnerships improve young people’s attainment and engagement in STEM subjects and develop awareness and understanding of STEM careers, contributing to the Gatsby Careers Benchmarks.

At the heart of every ENTHUSE Partnership is a collaboration between 8-10 schools or colleges, supported by coaching from a DTSA colleague over 2 years.

Each Partnership will develop a tailored two-year action plan, including:

  • teacher CPD combining local and online courses
  • free, curated and quality-assured resources
  • engaging with STEM Ambassadors to inspire young people
  • STEM Clubs to engage young people and develop practical skills
