Objectives
With science a compulsory part of schooling, schools and teachers are continually demanding effective professional development courses in this important subject.

As a result, this course has been designed to allow you to explore learning and teaching for yourself at a sophisticated-enough level to enable you to also influence and manage the practice of other teachers.
