The courses support targets to increase the number of specialist maths, physics and chemistry teachers. They are designed for teachers who do not have a specialism in maths, physics or chemistry, and will develop their subject and pedagogical knowledge – enabling them to teach learners aged 11–19 with more confidence, expertise and enthusiasm.
Courses will be flexible and spread over an intensive summer start and the following academic year. They will offer academic accreditation at H-level, with the option of taking some M-level credits.
Participating schools will be able to claim supply cover and participants meeting the eligibility criteria (including the achievement of 40 credits at H level) will receive a £5,000 incentive on completion of the course.
