The science community, under the SCORE banner, launches framework for practical science in secondary schools

At the ASE national meeting held in Reading SCORE, the Science Community Representing Education, launched Getting practical: a framework for practical science in schools. The publication is designed to encourage schools' heads of science and their science teaching staff to reflect on the practical work in science they offer, identify the attributes of best practice in practical work and plan how the quality of practical work in science can be improved.

A photograph of a teacher standing in a white lab coat, speaking with a class of children in a laboratory, is superimposed on a colourful background. Text reads "Teach Chemistry means support for classroom and staff room".
