Why we are here:

We want all young people to be able to fulfil their potential, but too many are being held back by the lack of specialist teaching.

– Around 60% of qualified physics teachers leave the profession after five years.

– There is a shortage of 3,500 specialist physics teachers in English secondary schools.

– 25% of schools have no specialist physics teacher at all.
