A central part of our provision is the STEM Club, where students take on cross-curricular projects that integrate multiple disciplines. Recent projects have included designing, building, and testing balsa wood gliders, combining mathematical modelling, engineering principles, and computer-aided design. We also work closely with our local primary schools, welcoming them onto our site to take part in a range of hands-on STEM activities. These sessions aim to spark curiosity and encourage early engagement with STEM learning. Our programme is further enriched through strong links with higher education. We have hosted visits from Brunel University, whose staff and students have delivered live demonstrations and interactive experiments. These sessions not only deepen subject understanding but also give our students a valuable insight into university-level learning and life. In addition, we offer a variety of enrichment opportunities through trips and competitions. Highlights include participation in the Maths Feast competition and visits to the London Design Museum, helping students explore the real-world applications and career opportunities in STEM fields. Finally, we have delivered several assemblies across all year groups, highlighting different careers in STEM, as well as those which students may not initially affiliate with its encompassed subjects. This has also allowed us to focus upon famous women in STEM, helping to inspire the next generation to pursue these opportunities. ### Learning - [Statement of Intent](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/statement-of-intent) - [Curriculum Maps](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/curriculum-maps) - [KS3 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks3-curriculum) - [KS4 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks4-curriculum) - [KS5 Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks5-curriculum) - [The Wider Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/the-wider-curriculum) - [Super Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/super-curriculum) - [Careers](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/careers) - [Literacy](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/literacy) - [Personal Development](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/personal-development) - [Extra Curricular Activities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/extra-curricular-activities) - Beyond the Classroom - [Benefits of the wider curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/benefits-of-the-wider-curriculum) - [Wider Curriculum at Queensmead School](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/wider-curriculum-at-queensmead-school) - [Charities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/charities) - [Community Languages](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/community-languages) - [Concerts](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/concerts) - [CREST Awards](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/crest-awards) - [Drama Productions](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/drama-productions) - [Educational Visits](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/educational-visits) - [Extracurricular Activities](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/extracurricular-activities) - [Jack Petchey “Speak Out” Challenge](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/jack-petchey-speak-out-challenge) - [Music Tuition](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/music-tuition) - [Outreach](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/outreach) - [STEM](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/stem) - [Student Leadership](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/student-leadership) - [The Scholars Programme](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/beyond-the-classroom/the-scholars-programme) ![Queensmead School](https://files.schudio.com/queensmead-school-2/images/logo/Logo-Footer.png) ### Queensmead School Queens Walk South Ruislip Middlesex HA4 0LS 020 8845 6266 ### Quick Links: - Term Dates - [Contact Us](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/contact) - [News](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/news) - [Calendar](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/calendar) - [Post 16](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/post-16) - [Admissions](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/our-school/admissions) - [Curriculum](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/curriculum/ks5-curriculum) - [Ofsted Report](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/our-school/ofsted) - [Newsletter](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/parents/newsletter) - [Students](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/students) - [Uniform](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/parents/uniform) [![Partnership Learning](https://files.schudio.com/queensmead-school-2/images/logo/AAAPartnership-Learning_white.png)](https://partnershiplearning.com) © Copyright 2026 Queensmead School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://queensmeadschool.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/queensmead-school-2/images/splash/Splash_Screen_1.jpg)
