Science in the spotlight

Last week I was fortunate enough to be part of the UK delegation for Science on Stage 2015 in London – a large science education conference with teachers from across Europe and Canada.

Where it differed from most teaching conferences was is in its focus on teachers presenting their ideas. There was a smattering of professional bodies, CLEAPSS, and the odd commercial company (often a small scale enterprise), but the overwhelming number of stands in the fair were from teachers showcasing their techniques, projects and culture.
