This resource looks at the development of genetic modification, genome editing and CRISPR, and where these technologies might lead. 

New genetic engineering technologies offer exciting opportunities to speed up the traditional plant breeding process and generate high-yielding, disease-resistant, climate...

This series from the 1960s provided a complete course in general science for 11 to 15 year olds.

Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), these resources help to put curriculum science in a real life context. The activities provide opportunities for children to extend their understanding of electricity by applying it to the concepts of electricity generation and its use in the...

This collection of resources from the Association for Science Education (ASE) and produced by teachers using standard ICT packages, illustrate some of the ways that ICT can be used to enrich existing schemes of work.

• Describe what happens when a magnet moves relative to a coil of wire.    
• Explain how...

In January 2012 Ofsted implemented a new framework for inspection to be used by inspectors in the Section 5 inspection of schools and academies. At the same time Ofsted published supplementary subject-specific guidance for inspectors on making judgements during visits to schools.

The supplementary guidance...

These videos and supporting activities have been reviewed by teachers and piloted in schools, and are designed to increase awareness and understanding of genetic disorders and to explain how differences in our genes help to make everyone unique. By encouraging acceptance and tolerance of difference, these resources...

This poster-style handout provides information about genes for children, explaining how genes are instructions for building proteins, how genetic disorders can happen and how many genes we have in our cells. The sheet was produced by Genetic Disorders UK, which provides schools with a host of free resources for...

There are three questions on this worksheet about genes, what they control and how we inherit them. A choice of answers is presented for children to shade in the correct one and there are pictures to support reading.

Published by the Wellcome Trust in 1997, this book provides challenging ways of incorporating scientific information into social situations. Teachers' notes complement the student activity sheets in a series of real-life scenarios.

Mind-boggling progress has been made in our ability to sequence a genome accurately and quickly, and in our ability to process and understand the huge amount of data that sequencing produces. What do these developments mean for each of us – our health, our identity, and the world we live in – now and in the future...
