Are you planning learning and teaching in sciences for early to second level? Or thinking about revamping your early, first and second level sciences? Are you an experienced teacher, PT, depute or head teacher looking for a model of staff mentoring and cluster working? Or a student or newly-qualified teacher looking to learn from the practice of others? Are you looking for inspiration for learning and teaching on body systems, cells and inheritance? This is a professional learning session you won’t want to miss!
On 7th May, teachers from primary schools in the Perth High School cluster, Perth and will be joining us to describe how they went from a desire to plan for progression in sciences in the primary schools throughout the cluster, to a successful implementation of a series of rich tasks for all lines of development in sciences, incorporating skills.
At this session you’ll be able to choose from two workshops, including hands-on sciences, led by teachers from the Perth High School cluster, and the Dundee Science Centre Science Learning Institute team.
