The School in Focus
This IPSE publication from the Association for Science Education (ASE) presents findings from the evaluation of the Local Education Authorities (LEAs) taking part in the Government funded scheme for promoting science in primary schools, 1985-8. The different LEAs adopted a wide variety of strategies for developing their primary schools' teaching of science, but all of them had advisory teachers as a central part of the strategy. The different ways in which these advisory teachers worked with the schools are described in this book. The book contains an index.
