Announcing a new series on teaching post-16
The first article in the series covers structure and bonding
Following on from the popular ‘How to teach…’ series aimed at teaching 11-14’s, Education in Chemistry has launched a new series of ultimate guides to teaching key topics that appear across all 16-18 curriculums. The first article deals with structure and bonding and contains ways to improve your practice, including new contexts and activities, common misconceptions, and tips for managing assessment.
Introducing Steps into Science
A brand new primary education website from the RSC
You can now find all the primary science resources from the Royal Society of Chemistry in one place: our new Steps into Science website.
Designed to help primary teachers simplify science and bust misconceptions, Steps into Science can build your confidence in teaching science with curated, primary-specific resources and fresh ideas for making your lessons accessible, inclusive and engaging: whether you’re in the classroom or teaching online.
Online CPD courses for your development
We’re here to support your subject knowledge and teaching practice
Our education coordinators will be delivering a variety of different live sessions throughout April and May to support you with new ideas and resources for teaching post-lockdown.

Resilience and adaptability – a CCF webinar
Thursday 29 April, 5–6.15pm (BST)
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic many of us have to be more flexible and adaptable than ever before, both at work and in our personal lives. This demand means we may need to become more resilient. Resilience, fortunately, can be learned.
Our online session on 29 April will share tips and techniques to enhance your own resilience and adaptability. There will also be a chance to ask any questions you may have.
Practical chemistry during a pandemic
13–14 July 2021
Teaching practicals has been severely affected by the pandemic. That’s why the RSC’s Secondary and Further Education group is hosting an online conference to share fresh ideas for approaching practicals in the classroom.
Topics covered will include carrying out practical work in a classroom or at home, using microscale techniques, and misconceptions within practical work. The conference will be followed by the 11th International Symposium on Microscale Chemistry.
