About the XYZ
Dream Big was a five-week programme that provided an opportunity for engineers to inspire disadvantaged children aged 5 to 7 years in the North East of England to the world of engineering work.
The National Literacy Trust delivered a fully immersive experience in the world of work for children, which was followed up with a half term of classroom lessons exploring different roles each week. Finally, by participating in Dream Big day, children could safely explore different roles through free and imaginative play, before being celebrated and rewarded for their participation.
The project specifically raised awareness of engineering roles among disadvantaged children, enabling them to imagine their futures in this sector, as well as improving the communication and engagement skills of engineers.
