Lively discussion of the #sciencesCIC rationale for 3-18 curriculum. Great to clear statement that "science is for everyone", but many points to note about the detail of what science learning is for, how it should feel, the attributes and skills to be developed in learners through science.

At full price Alom's excellent book is still an absolute bargain. If you teach science, learn science, do science or have just heard of science, you should buy it and read it. At this bargain price, but another one to give to a friend. (Gonna get one myself for our probationer teacher.)

A good start would be to dump the delivery metaphor. We deliver pizzas, we educate children. Tackling the culture of measurement and the resulting performativity would go a long way towards addressing the current problems
