Planet Science, which ended in July, is to have a legacy programme which will include:
* outreach projects
* a lab-design software package so teachers can experiment with designs to suit different teaching styles, given free to maintained schools in England
* a website with information on school science communicators so schools can select speakers, access reviews from other schools and benefit from advice
* research the impact of science role-models on young people’s views and actions
* more than a million copies of the At Home with Science booklet for parents to support science study and science homework at KS23 will be distributed this term.
