Education
Supporting STEM education
BP has been investing in education since 1968. BP education Service (BPES) was established to inspire and motivate young people to pursue a future in Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths (STEM). The BPES website provides a wide range of teaching materials and resources for use by teaches. All resources are based on research; it really makes a difference in engaging young people in STEM. According to research, more than half of the UK secondary schools use BPES resources since the BPES website was launched.

The programme is actually helping the young people to gain a better understanding of how important the STEM subjects are for energy industry and for their futures.
