The BBC listed 7 female scientists who do not feature in the national curriculum https://t.co/qCtRuTBj78. We'd add Maryam Mirzakhani, Stanford professor of mathematics who died in 2017 aged 40. She's the only woman to win a Fields medal, the most prestigious honour in mathematics

Welcome

Welcome from Mrs Julie Derrick, CEO of the Valley Invicta Academies Trust

Mrs julie derrick

Valley Invicta Academies Trust (VIAT) is proud to be opening the brand new School of Science and Technology Maidstone (SST), in September 2020.

This fantastic, state-of-the-art new secondary school will be open to 180 Year 7 students and will offer a specialist curriculum for those students with a real flair for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) subjects. We are very lucky to have the support of our strategic partner, SST Singapore.

Our aim is for SST Maidstone students to leave school with a combination of excellent exam results and a unique STEM based skill-set. All our students will benefit from being part of our Maidstone campus of schools and will have access to a wide range of shared facilities, including our brand new Sports Hall, which will be ready to use in September 2020.

We hope that you are as excited as we are about what we have to offer, and we look forward to receiving your applications in the coming months.  You can find more information about our Admissions Policy under the Admissions tab.

 

Welcome from Mrs Chan, Principal of SST Singapore

The School of Science and Technology, Singapore (SST) believes that nurturing innovators who are adept at applying Science, Technology, Engineering, Aesthetics and Mathematics (STEAM) will be key to shaping the  21st century. To this end, we embrace partnerships with like-minded peers, such as the team behind the School of Science and Technology, Maidstone (SST, Maidstone), to create compelling experiences for young learners.

Our exchange was first initiated when a team from Valley Invicta Academies Trust (VIAT) visited SST in 2014 on a learning journey to observe lessons and exchange best practices in teaching. We were both humbled and delighted to learn that the visit had inspired the conception of SST Maidstone and welcome the opportunity to help the team develop a rigorous programme for their students.

Schools managed by VIAT have helped many students realise their potential over the years; SST Maidstone is set to build on this impressive legacy by helping budding innovators find success.
