Physics Partners CPD Programme

Planet Possibility 2023-24 Physics CPD Programme – Autumn term

Would you or your colleagues appreciate support with teaching GCSE Physics?
Are there particular areas of the curriculum that you struggle with?
Are you confident talking about Physics careers to your pupils?

Through a partnership with Future First, Physics Partners are delivering an exciting programme of workshops covering the topics you need to know for teaching GCSE Physics. Our expert trainers will cover misconceptions and boost your confidence in teaching the topic, in one hour online sessions with no charge to attend.

New for this academic year we have introduced a second workshop session for each topic. Ideally you should attend the first session before the second, however this is not essential and both sessions will be repeated each term.

There are also sessions for career advisors/leaders and teachers of science, to help grow their confidence in exploring physics careers.
