## About this tender

The Royal Society seeks to engage an experienced interviewer, writer and editor for the Envision Project which shall focus on improvements in the education system in the area of STEM.

Drawing on the expertise of our fellowship, the Society provides expert, independent advice to policy-makers and the general public, championing the contributions that science can make to economic prosperity, quality of life and environmental sustainability. Recent policy studies have covered topics such as ocean resources, machine learning, school-business collaboration and synthetic biology.

Arising from the President of the Royal Society's concerns about the fitness of UK education for future science, the economy and wider society, the Royal Society's vision for science mathematics and computing education sets out to explore how school education systems in the UK should evolve to meet the demands of the mid-21st century.

To support this agenda, the Society has established the Envision project. The Society seeks to engage an experienced interviewer and writer/editor to produce short, thought-provoking publications which will encourage discussion surrounding the future of education by applying the Society's Broad and Balanced approach to a wide range of themes.
