Sign up to our community of physics teaching
The Institute of Physics has worked for many years to support those involved with physics teaching.
Please complete the relevant form below sign up to our community of physics teaching. In most cases, if you are a teacher you should complete the third version of the form. The final version is intended for those whose main role is based outside of schools.
If you can help inform the work of the Learning and Skills team to support the teaching of physics including recruitment, development and retention of colleagues, you can sign up for the Teaching Forum. There will be regular brief surveys and occasional opportunities for in-depth panel discussions throughout the year.
If you have a problem when submitting the form, please email [email protected] to let us know the details so we can resolve it.
