The impact of the Budget on science teaching
News from Department for Education and Skills, who give their spin on the Budget. I've quoted the parts relevant to science teaching : -
This is a good day for science in schools with significant extra resources to step up our efforts to promote learning and recruit the staff we need in this subject
and
School Science: £18 million to support teaching and learning in school science, £9 million in 2006-07 and £9 million in 2007-08. This will be combined with funding already from existing DfES resources to create a £30.5 million package over the next two years to support achievement of the 10 year Science Framework.
This investment will help us to increase the number of science teachers as well as the number of young people taking physics, chemistry and mathematics A-levels, and getting the top grades in science GCSEs.
