Al-Hijrah School - Bilkish Mohamed

'Al-Hijrah School had an OFSTED report on 15th and 16th June 2010 and the inspectors said the school no longer needs a 'notice to improve' what a relief! In fact the school achieved a good overall. The inspectors were very impressed with our links with the Physics Factory, especially when I explained that we wanted to deliver the seperate sciences but did not have the expertise and confidence in delivering the EDEXCEL P3 extension topics.'

Physics BTEC Training Day 2 Fri 18th June 2010

'If you have any doubts about attending the course, this has been much better than any Edexcel training I have attended for BTEC science; primarily due to the hands on approach the team at the physics factory have taken to delivering the course, and their close liaison with senior Edexcel EV’s'.
Christopher Browne, Windsor High School

Physics BTEC Training Day 1 Wed 16th June 2010

'I can't wait to deliver the new course now compared to before when I was dreading writing the tasks, the pupils will love the investigations and real life application'. Judy Gregory, Stuart Bathurst School

BTEC Physics Training Day 2 (Fri 11th June 2010)

As usual, the Physics Factory was really informative. Great resources and ideas and lots of innovative models that will really assist me in delivering Physics lessons. I would urge all teachers, in particular trainees/non specialists to sign up for training courses. Victoria Geddes (Teach First Teacher, Waverley School)

BTEC Physics Training Day 1 (Wed 9th June 2010)

The whole Physics Factory team have worked really hard on our account - brilliant!
