SCORE: Science Community Partnership Supporting Education
SCORE is a partnership of six organisations and provides a coherent voice for the science community on issues in science education.
The members of SCORE are the Association for Science Education, the Institute of Physics, the Royal Society, the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Science Council and the Society of Biology. SCORE is chaired by Professor Graham Hutchings.
SCORE partners recognise the importance of taking a strategic approach to strengthening science education. Key priorities include addressing the serious problems of the decline in numbers of young people taking A-level physics and chemistry and the unacceptable shortages of specialist teachers in these subjects in our schools and colleges.
The partners believe that the key to maximising the impact of their efforts, lies in a greater degree of collaboration and in having a sense of common purpose. Through this collective action, the partnership aims to increase its influence over the direction of science education in the years to come.
SCORE is supported by the Department for Education and the Gatsby Technical Education Projects
