I’m running a SKPT module this summer term. If anyone would like to join me, I’d be happy to have you! Get in touch for more info. #skpt #physics
Teaching KS3/4 physics out of specialism at an English state school?
Our FREE #SKPT subject knowledge CPD now comes with a school subsidy of up to £600
🗓️Still time to book for summer term sessions starting this month

Had the pleasure of Dr Lawrie from Nottingham university visiting @WalesHigh today to give our students a talk on how to create an invisibility cloak. It was absolutely inspiration to meet someone at the cutting edge of research in this field. @walesscience
That’s two of our Y7 classes successfully taking on Magna’s new Newton room 💪 Student feedback has been wholly positive too… which is a relief! 😅 only 10 more classes to go! @WalesHigh @walesscience
7A2 had a great day @MagnaScience 🛫We learnt about the Physics behind flying in the Newton Room and had the chance to explore the Pavilions. Thank you for organising @calvesbertius ✈️🔥
Huge thank you to Professor Paul Crowther for talking us through stellar evolution. Did you know he currently holds the title for discovering the largest star on record!? 🤯 watch this space for our next lecture! @WalesHigh @walesscience @sheffielduni
Can’t believe how successful the first talk in our new Physics lecture series has gone! Our students were fantastic, as too was Dr Susan Cartwright. Watch out the next talk in March! @WalesHigh @sheffielduni @walesscience
Any A-level Physics students fancy trying your hand at quantum coding? The IOP is running a challenge day in London! @WalesHigh @walesscience iop.org/events/quantum-codin…
I hope the school’s insurance covers blown minds! 🤯 @WalesHigh @walesscience
If you had the chance to send a message to space, what would it be? Well, now’s your chance! Reply with your message and yours could be going! #shoutfromspace @walesscience @WalesHigh

If you hold a pencil drawing up to a Van de Graaff generator, the discharge travels through the graphite on its way to ground!
Most *shocking* discovery of 2023 for me so far 😏⚡️

Jonathan is a fantastic Physics Educator and so I know this is a great opportunity for anyone seeking to “level up” their Physics knowledge.
Had a great time last night attending the Dark Matter celebration event at @sheffielduni. Did you know we can only account for 4.9% of ‘stuff’ in the universe? 🤯 @walesscience @WalesHigh
We’re running an ITT development session today where students receive sessions on all three sciences. My heart swelled a little when the group near me got a physics session and all shouted “YES!” 😍 @WalesHigh @C_L_Quibell @walesscience

Physics teachers. If you teach A-Level or IB and haven't heard of Guzled, then read on. Sally Weatherly created over 500 resources for each board a few years ago and they are free to download via a 2-step simple process. #ChatPhysics #iteachphysics

The face you pull when your “lovely” Y8 students buy you a ‘last-lesson’ gift and part of it is hair products 😐🤣 @walesscience #iteachphysics
I had a bird fly into my classroom today. Put it this way, it made the appearance of a wasp in a classroom look like a settler task 🤦♂️#iteachphysics

A-Level Physics teachers. Happened upon this nice, concise revision sheet for Electric Fields. Pls retweet if useful 🙂
