Physics Update
 |
As part of its active involvement in supporting physics in schools and colleges, the Institute of Physics arranges courses throughout the year for experienced and practising teachers of physics.
Why should I go on this course?
- to update your knowledge of recent developments in physics;
- to explore new practical activities and resources for use in the classroom;
- for opportunities to talk informally and share ideas with other physics specialists;
- and in turn, through your own teaching, extend and enrich students’ learning.

The Institute of Physics is keen to welcome teachers who have not had the opportunity to attend a Physics Update course before; therefore we will be giving priority to new applicants. We will also be reserving a number of places for teachers who have attended previous Physics Updates.
