Shortage Of Physics Teachers

EDM number 467 in 2010-12, proposed by Nicholas Dakin on 12/07/2010.
Categorised under the topics of Further education and Science.

That this House expresses its concern at the lack of specialist physics teachers and the consequent drastic drop in the number of entrants to physics A-level; recognises the threat this poses to UK physics and engineering and therefore to the UK economy; and calls for greater incentives to attract physics graduates into teaching in order to create access to high-quality physics teaching for every child.

This motion has been signed by a total of 101 MPs.
