It helped me appreciate how much we were ‘ already achieving and focus on what still needs to be done. I'm using the model of the application process to drive improvements in another subject area this year. ’ Has been the best tool for school improvement ever!’ Very reflective and well structured process. Being involved in the PSQM has definitely raised the standards of science at our school. ’ ‘The process gave me a framework to lead change in Science teaching and learning in my school. Science in my school has transformed beyond recognition. I would recommend for every school to become involved. ’ ‘ http: //www. psqm. org. uk/why-do-psqm/participant-profiles

The National Perspective In England, PSQM has been endorsed by the National Inspection Team The National Perspective In England, PSQM has been endorsed by the National Inspection Team (Ofsted) in both recent reports (2010 & 2013): School leaders who recognised the likelihood of a declining profile for science were able to mitigate the risk by, for example, seeking accreditation through the Primary Science Quality Mark. The process of gaining the award brings benefits beyond the certificate, because it requires school leaders to evaluate their provision and justify their science curriculum as being fit for promoting good learning. It also connects school science leaders to other primary school leaders who have successfully raised the subject’s profile in their schools. Maintaining Curiosity 2013
