The Sir Paul Callaghan Science Academy runs FREE, four day professional development programmes that aim to build excellence in the teaching of science.
The Academy is an initiative of the National Science-Technology Roadshow Trust. Our vision is to create a cohort of teachers who celebrate science and inspire their classes and colleagues to join them in exploring the world through science. It is about enhancing confidence and competence.
All this contributes to the creation of science champions in your school and to better prepare your students for a future New Zealand that will be deeply dependent on science.
The Academy Programme
A variety of excellent facilitators present the Academy programme. It is insightful, dynamic and interactive, as well as practical and hands-on, bringing a variety of best practice techniques and experiences to the fore. The following is a snapshot of some key themes that will be the focus over the four days. Full details will be made available to accepted teachers via the member’s area of our website.
