What a summer this has been!

What a summer this has been! First there were exam papers with unanswerable questions, then accidentally published results both north and south of the border, followed by the scramble for university places. There has been a positive ending though, with a record number of chemistry places being filled at our universities. This is fantastic news as we work towards our goal of attracting more students to study chemistry and pursue it as a career.

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor. 

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".
