John Orchard (Vice-Chair of Governors at Bartley Green School) - Thursday 1st November 2012






As part of a day in Bartley Green School visiting the science department and seeing it at work I spent part of the morning at the Physics Factory at King Edward VI Five Ways School with a group of our Year 11 students. I had demonstrated to me that "Physics is Fun!" as well as being very a very important subject with far reaching implications for understanding our natural world.

I was very impressed with the interest and enthusiasm shown by Bartley Green pupils for physics and the fact that some of them want to apply to King Edward's to study A Level physics.

I am very grateful to King Edward's for providing the opportunity for our pupils to develop an interest in physics
