The HQ Team


Liaison Officers

The team of Liaison Officers is made up of retired Headteachers, Heads of D&T and Engineers. Liaison Officers are the face of Arkwright at local level, liaising with new and already-affiliated schools; and mentoring the Scholars. The team is actively involved with the selection of candidates and provides the National Director with an up-to-date view of affiliated Schools and Scholars.

Affiliated Schools can direct any questions about the Arkwright Engineering Scholarships and/or the application process to either Arkwright HQ or to their local Liaison Officer.
