Celebrating National Manufacturing Day with our Year 13 T-Level Engineering students at RSP (Rail Signalling & Power) Ltd! ⚙️🔧

Students gained a valuable insight into local manufacturing in the Southwest through a facility tour, a Lean Manufacturing Lego challenge, and practical engineering tasks including cable replacement, crimping, and wiring assembly to industry standards.

A huge thank you to the RSP team for hosting such an engaging and inspiring day, giving our engineers of the future the opportunity to apply their technical knowledge in a real-world setting. 👏
