Are there areas of the primary science curriculum that you find more challenging to teach than others?

Would you like to improve your scientific knowledge and increase your confidence delivering the ‘tougher’ areas of the curriculum?

These five separate CPD sessions will help you to develop your subject knowledge using hands-on experiments and challenge misconceptions surrounding the ‘trickier’ areas of the science curriculum.

You will have the opportunity to delve deeper into these scientific concepts to improve your understanding and take away practical teaching strategies.

Sessions are available individually or in combinations to suit. We offer CPD on these five areas of the science curriculum; Electricity, Sound, Light, Evolution, Forces and Magnetism. Sessions are available in combinations, to suit.
