The Scottish Schools Racing Championships (SSRC) is designed to engage young people across the nation in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM).
The SSRC provides a platform to connect teams of students, businesses, thought leaders, and professional bodies together to create the next future wave of Clean Tech leaders. With the support of extra funding, we want to unlock their future potential and encourage them to be the best they can be.
Working through term time, teams are provided with their own electric chariot kit for the season and are put to the test with support to build their own Electric Chariot. They also learn about managing their finances, branding, and the promotion of their very own race team to take on their Scottish competition in the form of Time Trials, one car at a time against the clock.
Our initial age group is 8 to 25 years.
