Higher pupils – would you consider spending some of your holidays next summer doing a Nuffield placement?  We have had great success with these in the past.  In 2018, Aleena Nauman and Allan Goodbrand took part, and Anna Nauman did one in 2019.  Despite the lockdown in 2020, Alex Millar, Ashna Nauman and Areej Tauqir did online projects.  You can read the reports of their projects here:
