Like many
organisations, the IOP
has been working for
many years to improve
gender balance in
the uptake of physics
post-16. However,
the proportion of girls choosing physics has
remained at around 21%. Following our
most recent reports, we have been piloting
interventions with the whole school staff. Early
evidence suggests this can make a genuine
and marked difference.

Something for everyone engaged with the
teaching of biology.
11-19 programmes
For physics, chemistry and biology teachers,
whether experienced, NQTs or students.
Sessions are geared to responding to the
new science curricula and their impact on the
management of science departments. They
include:
Coping with new GCSEs more
content and more depth
The obsession with progression,
a five-year plan for working
scientifically
Current challenges for science
leadership.
The programme also includes practical
sessions, curricular and assessment
information and specialist lectures.
Research
Engage with the latest science education
research; led by universities or undertaken
by teachers as action research. There will
be workshops and poster sessions where
everyone involved in research can share good
practice across all sectors.
On Thursday, the more specialist work of the

The ASE
The ASE plays a significant role in promoting excellence in teaching and learning
of science in schools and colleges. The ASE is an independent body influencing
policy and tackling the challenges in science teaching: representing the voice
of its members and working closely with the science professional bodies,
government, industry and business.
Regional networks
ASE is active in all regions across the UK thanks to a
dedicated team of Field Officers and the enthusiasm
of local members. There is a regular programme
of regional CPD and networking events open to all
teachers, both members and non-members. Events
include free, twilight, science TeachMeets.
Expert commitment
The work of ASE is led by the expertise and
passion of its member-run committees.
The nine committees focus on resources, projects
and advice in their specialist area. This includes:
the Primary and 11-19 groups who focus on
supportingclassroomteachersandseniorleaders;
the Research group contributes to journals,
conferences and books; while the Science
Technicians Committee organises the annual
National Technicians Conference.
