Warning over a lack of practical science lessons

A lack of practical lessons in schools in England means many teenagers are struggling with science, Ofsted warns. The report, based on visits to 180 schools – 89 secondaries and 91 primaries – in England, found most science teachers wanted to do experiments in class to spark pupils’ interest, but thought this was difficult to do in practice. Time was the most pressing concern. As a result, opportunities for investigative scientific enquiry were limited. This won’t happen at Abbey – don’t worry!
