Energy Foresight provides a set of education resources for Key Stage 4 (S3 upwards in Scotland) that present radioactivity and related issues in a personal and social context, supporting the new science GCSE curriculum. Please explore the site for more details.

Having successfully completed the pilot in over 300 schools we are now continuing the implementation so that, eventually, it will be available in over 2100 schools across the UK. Training courses are being run across the country now.

If you would like to take part in the future of Energy Foresight, either as a teacher or programme sponsor, please contact Energy Foresight.
