Primary Partnership

We are working in partnership with primary schools to bring science and technology alive for students and empower teachers through a variety of services:

• modelling best practice, team teaching, observing and offering feedback
• bespoke Staff Development Days around any aspect of the new K-6 Science & Technology syllabus
• delivering achievable, engaging, hands-on science experiments to students in the classroom in collaboration with teachers
• planning and programming with teachers
• Digital Technologies
• STEM
• Gifted Ed STEM projects
• professional development courses

Dr Simon Crook is a very experienced K-6 Science & Technology teacher and provider of professional learning, with a PhD in Physics Educations Research (USyd) and a BSc (Hons) in Physics (Manchester). He has been working with many primary schools and school systems to best prepare their teachers and students for the new syllabuses over the past 11 years, including his regular partnership schools. Simon was actively involved in the syllabus consultation process. In addition, Simon has been in regular dialogue with STANSW, NESA and The University of Sydney, as well as having articles published in The Conversation, ABC Splash and a book chapter regarding new K-6 syllabuses and K-6 science teaching.
