The plan

Last week I met with the National Science Learning Centre in York as they are the experts in teacher's CPD. Hopefully we will be able to work with them in providing some really useful CPD sessions in their 9 regional centres throughout the land.

I hope to enlist the services of brilliant and charismatic scientists to talk to teachers about their research in contempory and controversial areas such as Stem Cell Research, GM Crops and Designer Babies.

I would also like to provide a workshop to give science teachers ideas and confidence in debating ethical and moral issues that are thrown up as a result of scientific advances. I hope to meet with some experts in debating next week!

Watch this space....
