Notes de l'éditeur
- I don’t intend to give figures – well documented in e.g. SET for Success Backed up by my own experience – every headteacher knows the foreboding as May 31 st approaches and the sinking feeling when a teacher of physics or chemistry – or worse still, maths – comes to see you near that time. And that was in a highly successful school with special strength in maths and sciences
- Science and Maths dominate. In secondary schools, opportunities for integration are limited because of the need to have specialist teaching. But there are advantages in showing pupils the links between subjects – and for better co-ordination between teaching.
- But look at it from outside and it’s different. T and E dominate, S, T, E and M are used in a seamless way, and integration is natural. We need to get more of this flavour into the classroom, because it shows why it’s important to study STEM and can help motivation – especially if you employ role models.
- Almost too many supporters – there are so many things going on – often unco-ordinated
- The reasons we need more people to understand science: Future scientists Democratic society – eg Human Fertility and Embryology Bill debated on Monday and Tuesday. Issues (a) hybrid embryos (b) ‘saviour siblings’ (c) Ending requirement to consider need for a father in adoption by gay/ lesbian
