This Catalyst article describes discovering hydrothermal vents at ocean sea-beds. Hydrothermal vents form along mid-ocean ridges. A mid-ocean ridge is where the Earth’s tectonic plates are moving apart, usually at a rate of about 6 to 18 centimetres a year. The presence of hydrothermal vents had been predicted by...

This booklet from the National Strategies is an abridged version of the science-specific quality standards with the addition of extracts from a teacher e-module. It is designed to give an introduction and overview of the structure and use of the Classroom Quality Standards (CQS) in science. It is based on the...

This collection brings together two books, each with thirteen units: one for students aged 11-14 and one for those aged 14-16. Each unit consisted of photocopiable student sheets with background notes for the teacher. The units were divided into ‘sessions’, most of which cover a double lesson.
