This term we prepare for November with some safety advice for fireworks and a safe recipe for slime. We introduce two new projects, the Primary Science Quality Mark and Getting Practical. There's also a few tips on developing your school grounds.

This summer we get creative with some colour chemistry, learn how to raise caterpillars and butterflies, dissect some owl pellets and learn how to work safely with micro-organisms. There's also details of some free CPD from the Getting Practical programme and some of the more interesting calls to the helpline.

If you can't find the answer you're looking for here then you might want to give our helpline a call on 01895 251496 or via our online helpline form.
