"The best teaching set out to sustain pupils’ natural curiosity, so that they were eager to learn the subject content as well as develop the necessary investigative skills"

The quote above from the OFSTED report, 'Maintaining curiosity - A survey into science education in schools in England 2010-2013,' reinforces the key message that the best science learning takes place when children are investigating for themselves.

Primary Science Education Consultancy's aim is to support teachers in making this happen. We work in a number of different ways to achieve this. For more information about the skills and experience we have, visit the About Us page.

We work with local education authorities to devise and implement strategies for primary science, including:
 

• setting up and leading regular science co-ordinator conferences
• developing and delivering annual programmes of continuing professional development (CPD)
• devising and funding specific projects.

We work directly with schools providing INSET tailored to their needs. For further information about the courses that we deliver for schools, visit the INSET page.

We also work with individual science co-ordinators and teachers. Further information about these services, visit the Support page.

Finally, our Resources page contains publications that we have developed as part of project work, and links to websites and other resources that schools find useful.
