By investing in teachers – providing CPD training and resources – the UKESF is promoting Electronics to an increasing number of Sixth Formers.

Further Growth for Successful Schools Project

This year, with generous support from the ERA Foundation and 16 companies in the Electronics sector, the Music Mixer project has grown significantly to reach even more schools. Working with the companies listed below and the Institute of Physics, the focus has been to provide local secondary schools with classroom resources and CPD training for their Physics teachers in Electronics. By investing in teachers, the UKESF is promoting Electronics to an increasing number of Sixth Formers. Overall, since the project started, we have supported 75 schools. Thank you!

The ‘Music Mixer’ circuit board is a hands-on activity that teaches core Electronics concepts for A-level Physics students, and was developed by the University of Southampton in partnership with the UKESF.
