About this event

This is part of a series of monthly webinars delivered by leading practitioners to positively impact your professional development. The 2021-2022 programme of webinars are linked to issues identified in the The 10 Key Issues with Children's Learning in Primary Science in England by Bianchi, L., Whittaker, C. and Poole, A. (2020). Explore the report here: https://seerih-innovations.org/just-good-stuff/10-key-issues/

During this session, discover how to enrich your setting with creative science learning opportunities where children can explore in a hands-on and purposeful way.

  • Develop children's natural curiosity as they talk about what they discover, ask questions and build their identity as scientists.
  • Build their skills vital for successful progression in KS1.

This SEERIH Spotlight will be led by Jane Catto. Jane has been a science-mad EYFS teacher for many years and also works as a Regional Rep for the Ogden Trust, helping schools across the region develop their science provision. She is a fellow of the Primary Science Teaching Trust and is passionate about sharing creative science ideas with fellow teachers.

Access: a Zoom link will be sent to registered participants in advance of the meeting. Please note this live session will not be recorded for distribution.

We work with a range of people to fascinate young people and their communities about the wonders of science and engineering in the world around us. If you teach primary or secondary science, are involved in science education or communication, are a school senior leader or governor, academic, research scientist/engineer or a business in science or engineering then the Hub will be of interest to you.

Located within the University of Manchester’s Faculty of Science & Engineering, we bring our expertise, built up over nearly 20 years to work with schools across Greater Manchester.  By focusing on the development of in-service teachers with a range of dynamic partners we are relentless in our drive to inspire, fascinate and improve the teaching and learning of science in our schools today. Our remit is mainly primary school science curriculum and professional development.
