This is the second year Porterbrook has funded the programme for Warwickshire schools after acquiring the Long Marston Rail Innovation centre in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Wednesday 29th November 2023, teachers from the participating Warwickshire schools met with the Porterbrook team at the Long Marston Rail Innovation Centre for a training day ahead of the programme beginning early next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly 800 pupils across 10 schools participated in the Rail Project in 2023, with 100% of teachers reporting an increase in their understanding of engineering and the diversity challenges in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Porterbrook Chief Operating Officer Ben Ackroyd said, \u201c<em>Connecting with the community local to us at Long Marston is important and so we were proud to support nearly 800 students with STEM engagement last year. We\u2019re looking forward to extending this into 2024 and helping to encourage a diverse future workforce with Primary Engineer<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andrew Norris, Head of Partnerships for Central &amp; East England at Primary Engineer, said: \u201c<em>At Primary Engineer, we are passionate about introducing pupils to engineers who can demonstrate the amazing career opportunities in the Rail industry.
