Reinvent the Future of Girls in STEM and AI with Strathcona Girls Grammar
Wed Jan 14 2026
What does it really take to prepare young women for a future shaped by STEM and artificial intelligence?
Let's ask Kara Baxter and two incredible yound women from Strathcona Girls Grammar!
In this episode of Reinvent the Classroom, we head inside Strathcona Girls Grammar to explore how one all-girls school is deliberately rethinking learning, pathways and confidence in STEM and AI. This is not about adding more coding lessons or chasing the latest trend. It is about culture, mindset, role models and creating spaces where girls see themselves as future engineers, designers, scientists and leaders in emerging technologies.
We unpack how Strathcona is building authentic STEM experiences, embedding AI literacy, and challenging the quiet barriers that still hold girls back from technical fields. The conversation explores curriculum design, teacher mindset, industry connection and the importance of showing students what is possible before they decide what is not for them.
This episode is for educators, school leaders and anyone passionate about equity in education who believes the future of AI and STEM must be shaped by diverse voices, not inherited by default.
Because reinventing the classroom also means reinventing who feels they belong in the future.
