“An Arkwright Engineering Scholarship is the most esteemed scholarship of its type in the UK, designed to inspire students to pursue their dreams and change the world as an outstanding engineer of the future.”
The Technology and Design department are pleased to continue our strong links with the Arkwright Trust, having first gained accreditation in 2013. This year Sophie McHenry and Eve Wilson were selected from Rathmore. The process began in January with a detailed application process, followed by a 2 hour aptitude paper. Having achieved a top score in these elements, pupils were then invited to interview before a decision was made to offer this prestigious scholarship. We are very proud of Sophie and Eve for their achievements as they join only 5 other pupils from Northern Ireland at the presentation ceremony in Edinburgh.
