F1 in Schools has now expanded to 62 countries, engaging aspirant STEM minds to apply their talent towards careers in motorsport.
The overview outlines the process and equipment investment. For safe and affordable entry point, it is recommended that schools and teams in South Africa start with the Primary STEM programme, using paper-based cut-outs and a hand-held pump for propulsion. Once the programme is well embedded in approved extra-curricula activities, and programme fit at the school is proven, teams can progress to the Entry Level class - design on CAD and Make using custom model blocks.
>Schools - invest in a track, dedicate a teacher and provide space for the activity.
>Teams of 6 to 12 - raise sponsorships to buy consumables, run the team and race.
>Universities - partner with Future Ones for the school-to-Formula Student pathway.
>Corporate sponsors - financial sponsorships to fund and grow the programme and competition, across selected schools and teams, in South Africa. Future Ones NPC provides the central treasury and performance reports.
>Volunteers - support the programme office with programme-relevant experiential skills and mentorship. This could be in the fields of STEM, CAD, automotive engineering, marketing, motorsport, business management.
