Talk Science is a CPD opportunity for secondary Science teachers from the Science Museum. The aim is to share innovative tools and techniques to engage and inspire discussion around contemporary science in the classroom.

The Talk Science courses are delivered regionally across the UK. The day allows teachers to actively explore how to construct and run engaging discussions in the classroom. The course draws on the Science Museum’s expertise in developing contemporary science exhibitions and managing dialogue and debate.
