Just returned from a two hour after work meeting with the local school governors and business representatives.
The whole aim was to establish links into the school to promote 'solution engineering' and to expose the kids to some real life problem solving.
Is it me? These guy's spent the entire two hours talking a DIFFERENT language than me. Education 'speak' is obviously something I didn't learn while I was at school!
I'll let you know if anything actually happens, I'm planning to keep this going for the rest of the year, after this I'll make a decision whether to stay involved or walk away.
