Please find below details of two upcoming events from the Sciences team at Education Scotland:
8 Dec 2015: Sharing practice network – flexible progression routes from BGE to senior phase (Venue: Dunblane High School)
This network was set up to explore progression pathways through the BGE in preparation for the senior phase in science. The first event was held on 27th February. At that event, delegates learned of different strategies to develop over the next few months. At the follow up event, as well as some examples of interesting practice, returning delegates will give short presentations on their developments.
Target audience: School leaders as well as secondary science FHs, PTs and practitioners. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

27 Jan 2016: Sharing practice network – meeting learners’ needs (Venue: Tynecastle High School, Edinburgh)
This network was set up to investigate strategies for learning and teaching in classroom where more than one NQ level is being taught at the same time. Our first meeting learners’ needs network event was on 31st October 2014. At that event, delegates chose a strategy to develop and trial over the next few months. At the follow up event on June 8th, as well as some examples of interesting practice, returning delegates gave short presentations on their findings. This event will look at further developments made, celebrating success and learning from our experiences.
