ASE 2022 Annual Conference Online

There is a well-documented, national shortage of physics specialists teaching science. This can lead to non-specialists teaching physics content they are not entirely comfortable with, and can in turn result in demotivated students, a loss of interest in Physics and a loss of future physics A-level candidates. However, with the right support and help, these teachers can achieve excellent results. This session will discuss how you can support non-specialist physics teaching in your science department and provide some practical steps you can take to introduce effective CPD with your colleagues.
