SUMMARY:Meeting the new Ofsted framework in secondary science - Postponed\, new date to follow
DESCRIPTION:The Ofsted framework introduced in September 2019 requires science leaders to have a clear curriculum vision for the subject\, and be able to implement it effectively. Using Ofsted’s 3Is (Intent\, Implementation and Impact) as a foundation\, this course will guide participants through both the new framework and their current science curriculum\, to ensure that the department\, and its teachers and students\, are better prepared. The course will help identify strengths and weaknesses in your current curriculum provision – from teaching and learning in lessons\, to broader thinking beyond exam specifications that links school science to the outside world. \nLed by Ed Walsh\, Science author\, editor\, curriculum developer and CPD provider.  A Regional Development Lead for the STEM Learning network of Science Learning Partnerships\, Ed is a regular provider of CPD for organisations including the National STEM Centre\, AQA and the ASE. \nCost – Maintained schools £85\, Independent schools £150. \nBook now at http://www.stem.org.uk/rp352 \nDownload flyer
