Really interesting and great to see the data backing this up too.

Now @mikeycaer.bsky.social is prompting discussion around how we include environmental and sustainability in science qualifications.

Questions being posed below – interested in the #SciTeachUK perspective on these too #OCRScience
Environment and sustainability in the science curriculum • What does content on sustainability mean from your perspective? E.g. identifying fake news, acting on climate change, engagement with research, use of literature, critical thinking... • Is the current coverage sufficient, too little or too much (inc. exams)? • Is the content best kept discrete or should it be linked to topics? See the examples from Teach the Future on the A3 sheets • What issues are there when trying to teach this currently? • Is more support needed for teachers? What form(s) would this take, if so? • How should the approach differ between qualifications e.g. A Level and GCSE
