This Ofsted publication is one in a series that gives guidance on inspection of subjects, in this case Design and Technology. Inspectors’ need to evaluate:

• How high are the standards in design and technology, and are they high enough?
• How well are students progressing?
• How well is design...

This short series tells the stories of inspiring scientists who've become leaders in their fields against the odds.

There is a high demand for engineers in the UK and engineering is one of the most in demand jobs globally. From apprentices to technicians; graduates to postgraduates, engineers are needed at all levels, in a wide range of sectors.

This leaflet provides guidance for teachers, with key points about...

From the Institute of Physics, this collection of resources gives careers information for students, teachers and careers advisers. There is a set of video clips that follow the work of individual scientists as they show how physics is applied in their work. The video clips illustrate concepts in physics and how...

The Institute of Physics Schools and Colleges Lecture has been delivered by a series of acclaimed physics communicators, throughout the UK, since 1993. Topics are explained using a wide range of visual aids and the one hour lectures are accessible to students aged 14 years old and above. They are designed to tie in...

Professor Andrew Coates and Dr Ian Hutchinson explain how the ExoMars instruments, the Pancam and Raman spectroscopy instruments can be combined to help scientists identify areas of interest on the surface of Mars.  The video shows how field trips are important to learn first-hand the challenges that the ExoMars...

This STEMNET resource describes the background and career of instrumentation engineer and STEM Ambassador, Boye Odukunle.

Boye develops precise specifications clients who are building 'plants' or 'facilities' that process oil and gas following its extraction from reserves.

The job offers...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of integration, often used in the field of engineering. They include linearity rules of integration, integration by parts, integration by substitution and integration as the reverse of differentiation.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions, for...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of integration and are suitable for students studying mathematics at A Level, as well as those students for whom mathematics is an integral part of their course. Some of the topics covered include integration as the reverse of differentiation, integration by...

This series of excel sheets look at the area of regions bounded by linear and quadratic graphs.

The first interactive sheet calculates the area under the line y = mx + c between limits A and B. The effect on the area...

The first of two RISP activities, Modelling the Spread of a Disease requires students to carry out a simulation of a disease spreading. Students carry out an experiment...

The initial problem looks at an area given between two curves. The first curve is a parabola with the x and y axis intercepts given. The second curve is a stretch parallel...
