Please note: The examples in these professional development videos were filmed in real classrooms across the UK. Since they were not scripted activities, it was not possible to avoid background noise, but we hope that this is mitigated by the addition of subtitles. Teachers selected and risk assessed their own lessons. For Health and Safety guidance regarding practical activities, please refer to SSERC for Scotland and CLEAPSS for England, Wales & Northern Ireland.
