The Parents' Guide gives parents the chance to see what their children are learning and how subjects are being taught in classrooms today.
In this programme, presenter Fiona Millar meets two parents and education consultant Anne Goldsworthy, to discuss how science is being taught in primary schools.
They look at Teachers TV programmes to see how primary science presents new challenges for teachers, pupils and parents.
Some of the questions discussed by the panel include:
- Why is science important?
- What makes a good science lesson for younger pupils?
- How do teachers get across difficult concepts such as gravity?
- How can visiting scientists and engineers help in the classroom?
- What is the best way to support your child's learning in science?
