Editorial - A summer of science education
As the school year closes...
It is hard to believe that another school year draws to a close and the exam season has been and gone but I suspect that the discussions over exam quality, fitness for purpose and maths content will rumble on for some time to come.
As you and your students recover from endless revision sessions and the stress of exams, we can look forward to an exciting summer. As you settle down to watch the Olympics, possibly wowed by the creation of the 5-ringed olympicene molecule, I'll be off to the ICCE and ECRICE 2012 conferences in Rome, then on my annual pilgrimage to Variety in Chemistry Education in Edinburgh, just as everyone returns to teaching.
