Motorsport has the power to enthuse young people about careers in science, technology and engineering. Motorsport Development UK funds the Learning Grid, a set of programmes that encourage pupils and students to consider a career in engineering and motorsport.

The Learning Grid offers a co-ordinated set of activities that covers all ages from primary school pupils to University students including: Primary Engineer, Formula Schools, F1 in Schools, Greenpower, Formula Student and the Shell Ecomarathon. A highlight of the year is the final of the Greenpower electric car racing series at Goodwood. For full details of the Learning Grid visit www.learninggrid.co.uk.
