Tenet Consultants Awards Community Grant Funding to Three North West Schools to Support STEM Education

Birchwood Park based Tenet Consultants is proud to announce the latest recipients of the Tenet Community Grant, with three North West schools awarded funding to enhance STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) learning opportunities for pupils.

Cherry Tree Primary School, Lunts Heath Primary School and Lowton High School have each received funding to support hands-on STEM initiatives designed to inspire curiosity, creativity and problem-solving skills from an early age.

The Tenet Community Grant was launched as part of Tenet’s 20th anniversary year, and forms part of their wider commitment to investing in future generations and supporting local communities through education, opportunity and skills development.

Adele Rudenko, Early Careers Advisor at Tenet Consultants, said:

“With the growing demand for STEM skills across all industries, it’s more important than ever to inspire young people from an early age and show them just how exciting science, technology, engineering and maths can be. At Tenet, we’re passionate about opening young minds to the incredible world of engineering and helping to spark curiosity, creativity and ambition that could lead to long, fulfilling and rewarding careers in the future.”

Lowton High School were successful in their application to enhance their science department with a new set of microscopes, whilst at Cherry Tree Primary School in Lymm, the grant has funded programmable robots to support computing and coding lessons.

Helen Graham, Former Headteacher at Cherry Tree Primary School, said:

“We are incredibly grateful for the generous donation of these programmable robots to our school. This exciting addition will play a vital role in enhancing our computing curriculum, giving our pupils hands-on experience with coding, problem-solving, and digital creativity. Opportunities like this help to inspire curiosity and build essential skills for the future, and we sincerely thank everyone involved for their support and commitment to our students’ learning.”

Lunts Heath Primary School in Widnes also successfully applied for funding to support a STEM and engineering club led by its Year 6 Science Leaders, helping younger pupils develop a love of science through practical activities and collaborative learning.
In their application, the pupils wrote:

“We would love to host an engineering or STEM club for the juniors in the summer term. Along with the benefits of showing the children how fun science is, these clubs would also help the children have a wider vocabulary in their actual science lessons which means everyone would benefit from these sessions. We would really appreciate this grant so we are able to continue spreading the love of science to as many people as possible.”

Tenet Consultants remains dedicated to fostering educational opportunities that equip young people with the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving technological landscape. The Tenet Community Grant represents a key part of this philosophy, furthering the company’s work to invest in future talent from an early age.
