Huge thanks to EDF, Amentum and Miss Andrew for organising this fantastic opportunity. @DT_AoMSchool @edfenergy @amentum_corp

Year 12 & 13 Design Engineering and Physics students have visited Heysham Nuclear Power Plant to explore nuclear energy generation and storage. @edfenergy @DT_AoMSchool @amentum_corp

[AoM Design & Technology @AoMDesignTech]

The visit was really informative and well organised, with a behind-the-scenes tour of the control room, plant and turbine hall bringing it all to life. Career and HE routes were explored, with lots of learning to take back to the classroom for upcoming exams. @DT_AoMSchool
