SCORE Responses
SCORE is a partnership of organisations, which aims to improve science education in UK schools and colleges by supporting the development and implementation of effective education policy.
The partnership is chaired by Professor Graham Hutchings FRS and comprises the Association for Science Education, Institute of Physics, Royal Society, Royal Society of Chemistry and Society of Biology.
SCORE's priority areas over the next four years are: the curriculum, qualifications and assessment, the school and college workforce and the wider learning experience.
SCORE publishes a number of policy statements and reports and these can be downloaded from the SCORE website. Alternatively, you can follow SCORE on Twitter.
