Many of you are aware of the changes in our college, the changes that were not made by us, and the changes that we had no say in, the destructive alterations that will drastically change our education, our experience and wellbeing in Stem. The changes include:

1. Uniform – When we first joined stem we were forced to sign a contract that stated that we should dress formal, with strong enthuse of no hats and hoodies. Now we are going to be forced to wear suits to college, which was not part of the original contract. Most students attending the college will never have to wear a suit in their future careers. So the enforcement will just be a waste of time for students and staff, as well as a waste of money. Students will be sent home for wearing clothes that they are comfortable in. They will be forced to buy something that they will never need to wear at any other stage in our lives.
2. Timetable – Adaptation is key in human survival; however in this crucial time in our lives we should be working on preparing for university or the next stages after college. We should not be worrying about major changes in our time tables such as the school day being longer or having to start the day at 8:30 or leave at 5:30.
3. The students applied for S.T.E.M because of the empathies on Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. Most students believed that they would be advantaged by going to a school specializes in S.T.E.M subjects, however now that empathies is being altered, the college will now specialize in business and Math. This will strongly disadvantage the students that were misled to come to stem on a broken promise.
4. Our satisfaction – The approach to the change just shows that they didn’t care about what we students think, even some members of staff were not aware of the changes being made to the college that they work in. The students were not asked about the changes nor were we informed until a decision was made.
5. Our views – When students asked to have a meeting to discuss the changes, we were denied that opportunity.
