MEGA PUSH Science GCSE Intervention Programme

- exciting collection of KS3&4 lesson activities specially suitable for interactive whiteboards (try the bone-blasting machine - a fun but gruesome introduction to vertebrates and invertebrates); highly recommended

Scientifica Test and Assessment demonstration

- loads of easy-to-use slide shows, mainly images that can be incorporated into lessons (teachers need to review them first to add their own commentary)

- science issues on which the Society has conducted a study, issued a science brief, held a meeting, issued a press release... (good for topical issues, otherwise more suitable for KS3 Ideas & Evidence, or gifted and talented)

The Science Framework (on The Standards Site)

Science Intervention Materials - downloadable notes and the pack of intervention activities designed to help teachers provide extra support for pupils who are struggling to make progress beyond National Curriculum level 4 in science; also Access and engagement in science - downloadable resources focusing on how the principles of the Key Stage 3 National Strategy apply to the teaching and learning of science for pupils for whom English is an additional language (known as 'pupils learning EAL')
