The global STEM education in K-12 market size is expected to reach USD 131.98 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 14.0% from 2024 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. A renewed emphasis on STEM-focused schools and the need for a pipeline of specialist STEM skills have reinforced market growth. The increased attention to STEM education will likely foster critical thinking, spatial reasoning, creativity, and problem-solving. Further, the prevalence of high-definition videos, interactive games, and skills training for kids will augur growth. The demand for high-quality learning experiences and investments in STEM literacy to prepare students for jobs and post-secondary STEM degrees will reshape the industry dynamics.
The STEM-supported pedagogic system has gained prominence among middle school students, mainly due to the trend for real-time formative assessment, online laboratory experiments, and gaming. STEM education is expected to underpin curiosity, prepare students to combat real-world issues, and equip them with solid technical know-how. Middle school STEM programs are poised to introduce learners to subjects and skills they need to succeed in high school, college, and careers. Students are also expected to gain soft skills, such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation while doing activities and completing assignments. For instance, rubber band cars and toothpick bridges can help educators test middle school students' engineering and creativity skills.
The Asia Pacific is expected to account for a considerable share by 2030 due to bullish government policies and the adoption of advanced technologies. Well-established players, startups, and governments are slated to emphasize STEM curricula to foster cohesive learning based on real-life situations and real-world applications. Forward-looking companies could inject funds into organic and inorganic growth strategies to propel their footprint.
