Early career teacher conference SL079 / AA01
Summary
Whether you’re just starting teaching or in your first 5 years of teaching, join us at the National STEM Learning Centre in York to develop your ideas and confidence to teach primary science. We’re delighted to welcome a range of subject experts to run keynote sessions and workshops all aimed at providing practical strategies to make primary science manageable, effective and engaging.
Primary science nurtures children’s natural curiosity and develops children’s understanding of the world. Through practical activities children learn essential enquiry skills, as they build their understanding of the value and place science has in their lives.
During the conference you will explore a range of practical science techniques, activities and resources, while considering the impact they have upon the learning of your pupils.
