Research opportunity: share your thoughts on assessments

We are conducting research on the role of assessments in secondary school chemistry education. If you’re a chemistry teacher in the UK or Ireland who teaches up to the end of compulsory secondary education, we’d love to speak to you.

By sharing your experiences of preparing students for chemistry assessments, you’ll play a crucial role in our future efforts to influence chemistry assessment standards. All data collected will be anonymised to ensure that neither you nor your school will be identifiable. As thanks for your participation, each participant will receive a £20 Love2Shop gift card.
