Kieropoly

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

Kier has developed a game called ‘Kieropoly’ in efforts to demolish common misconceptions of construction and to build understanding through a combination of fun, myth-busting questions along with technical construction questions. The students’ knowledge of construction is tested as they battle against each other as they answer questions and respond to scenarios and true and false quizzes that are unique to the construction industry, before racing against the clock for a team forfeit PPE break point.

Kieropoly is a fundamental game changer, aiding the delivery of our social value targets as part of our ‘Shaping the World’ initiative and providing a platform to reach out to generation Z.

240 Year 11 students from Bartholomew School trialled the game which was gifted to their careers department to positively impact future year groups and to build a legacy for construction. The game proved to be a success with Kier invited back for a Year 12  presentation. The game will now be advertised within our Education Activity Booklet which is handed out to schools and colleges.
