Direct feedback from teachers and schools who have hosted our workshops.
This was so much better and definitely a recommendation for any other schools.
Lots of the children were asking to do it again - so we feel it was a great success!
STEM in Hereford: Why It Matters for Your Students
A History of Innovation
Herefordshire has a quietly remarkable engineering heritage. The county's rich agricultural tradition drove early innovation in mechanised farming and food production, while the Rotherwas munitions factory operated as a key industrial site through both World Wars. The construction of the Hereford Mappa Mundi in the thirteenth century, while not strictly STEM, represents one of the great achievements of medieval knowledge mapping. In more recent decades, the county's strategic location and secure rural setting made it a natural home for sensitive defence and intelligence work.
Inspiring STEM Role Models
John Venn, the mathematician whose Venn diagrams are taught in every school in the country, grew up in nearby Hull but his work underpins the logical thinking at the heart of modern computing and data science. Herefordshire's STEM story is perhaps best told through its institutions: the county's SAS heritage has driven practical engineering and technology innovation, while the arrival of major cyber security operations has created a new generation of local STEM role models working at the cutting edge of national security.
Hereford’s STEM Economy Today
Herefordshire has become one of the UK's emerging cyber security hubs. The presence of GCHQ and related intelligence operations nearby has attracted a growing cluster of cyber and defence technology firms to the region. The Skylon Park enterprise zone in Hereford is developing as a hub for advanced manufacturing and technology businesses. Herefordshire's agricultural sector is increasingly technology-driven, with precision farming, GPS-guided machinery, drone crop monitoring and data analytics transforming traditional land management. Cargill, a major agri-food employer, operates significant processing facilities in the county.
STEM Career Pathways for Young People
Cyber security and intelligence work offer some of the most exciting STEM career pathways for young people in Herefordshire, with GCHQ and its supply chain actively recruiting apprentices and graduates in software engineering, data science, network security and electronic engineering. The growing cluster of defence technology firms at Skylon Park creates roles in engineering, project management and technical analysis. Agricultural technology careers in precision farming, environmental monitoring and food science are expanding rapidly, with employers seeking skills in data analysis, robotics, drone operation and software development. The NMiTE (New Model Institute for Technology and Engineering) university in Hereford, founded in 2020, offers integrated engineering degrees designed around employer needs.
Investing in STEM Education in Hereford
Herefordshire sits at the intersection of two of the UK's fastest-growing STEM sectors: cyber security and agri-tech. GCHQ's presence and the associated supply chain mean that some of the most sensitive and sophisticated technology work in the country happens right here. Meanwhile, the county's farmers are adopting drones, robotics and AI at pace. NMiTE is training the next generation of engineers in the city centre. For schools in Herefordshire, the message is clear: STEM careers are not something students need to leave the county to find. They are being built right here, and the employers are actively looking for local talent.
