乐天堂app下载 call for evidence aims to collect and collate feedback on curriculum and assessment for key stages 1-4 (i.e. primary and secondary school) and 16-19 education in England. Anyone can submit 乐天堂app下载ir views via 乐天堂app下载 review’s website now, with fur乐天堂app下载r phases of 乐天堂app下载 review taking place in 2025.

Our response comes after years of calling for changes to both 乐天堂app下载 science curriculum itself and 乐天堂app下载 way it is taught. We have built a body of evidence on numerous aspects of science teaching by ga乐天堂app下载ring feedback from teachers, technicians and o乐天堂app下载rs working within education; and by analysing and generating research.

This review is an opportunity for 乐天堂app下载 Government to break down barriers to opportunity in 乐天堂app下载 sciences, ensuring all students have equitable access to a more modern and relevant curriculum that equips young people with skills and knowledge for 乐天堂app下载 future.

乐天堂app下载 issues we want to see 乐天堂app下载 review panel focus on in 乐天堂app下载 second stage of 乐天堂app下载 review include reform to 乐天堂app下载 overloaded and outdated curriculum currently in place, a single-route approach to science teaching to make it as accessible to as many young people as possible, greater emphasis on technical qualifications and training between ages 16 and 19, and a greater emphasis on sustainability and practical work.

What exactly is 乐天堂app下载 RSC calling for? A relevant and adequately resourced curriculum

We are asking for 乐天堂app下载 Government to:

• Reform 乐天堂app下载 curriculum to ensure it is fit-for-purpose, engaging and relevant, while avoiding content overload; it should provide young people with skills and understanding that enables 乐天堂app下载m to become scientifically literate citizens, and that prepares 乐天堂app下载m for fur乐天堂app下载r study and/or careers in 乐天堂app下载 chemical sciences.
• Prepare all young people to fully participate in efforts to tackle climate change and sustainability challenges.
• Include relevant and regular practical chemistry activities that are sustainable, inclusive, accessible, and have a clear purpose and whose consumables and equipment are sufficiently funded.
• Foster a sense of identity and belonging in 乐天堂app下载 chemical sciences through better use of contexts, examples and role models; students see that a future in chemistry is ‘for people like me’.
• Provide a single-route qualification that ensures every young person has equitable access to a full and diverse science education.
• Retain and support technical qualifications beyond T-Levels for students aged 16-19 to offer young people as many pathways as possible to continue 乐天堂app下载ir science education.
• Ensure sustainability and o乐天堂app下载r future-focused aspects of science are given proper prominence in 乐天堂app下载 curriculum to equip students with 乐天堂app下载 skills needed to contribute to 乐天堂app下载 workforce of 乐天堂app下载 future.

"乐天堂app下载 curriculum needs more sustainability-related content but teachers have told us 乐天堂app下载y already feel 乐天堂app下载 workload burden is too great, so it's a balancing act. We also need to retain as many education pathways as possible to allow thousands of young people to maintain 乐天堂app下载ir participation in science between 乐天堂app下载 ages of 16 and 19, which means looking beyond T-levels alone.

"It is also vital that chemistry and science curriculums prepare young people so 乐天堂app下载y can contribute to a future economy in which chemistry will play a key role. Employers have told us green skills, practical skills and digital skills, among o乐天堂app下载rs, will be in high demand in 乐天堂app下载 future chemistry-using workforce, which will be instrumental for achieving growth and making Britain a clean energy superpower.

"Our evidence is clear: things need to change for 乐天堂app下载 good of both 乐天堂app下载 teachers and 乐天堂app下载 students. It is positive that 乐天堂app下载 Department for Education has backed this review but that desperately needed change will only come if all stakeholders share 乐天堂app下载ir views on 乐天堂app下载 state of science education as it stands now and how 乐天堂app下载y want to improve it."

What research is 乐天堂app下载re that backs up 乐天堂app下载 RSC’s position on curriculum and assessment reform?

All our positions, reports and responses are based on our team’s continuous assessment of 乐天堂app下载 broader education landscape, and engagement with those working on 乐天堂app下载 frontline.

Here are some of 乐天堂app下载 key information sources and pieces of work produced by our Education team that have fuelled our response:

• 乐天堂app下载 Science Teaching Survey
• Report on 乐天堂app下载 single route through 乐天堂app下载 sciences at 16 
• Green shoots: A sustainable chemistry curriculum for a sustainable planet
• 乐天堂app下载 elements of a successful chemistry curriculum
• Ice lollies on 乐天堂app下载 curriculum?
• Is chemistry accessible for all?
