iPrimary Science webinar: Practical solutions to common challenges
Presenter(s): Kevin Hiatt, Leah Hopkinson

About the webinar
This webinar is designed for any international school educator involved in the provision and teaching of primary science.
Our experts will introduce Pearson's International Primary Science, a complete, enquiry-led course for Years 1–6 (ages 5-11). They'll show you how to tackle the key challenges often faced when teaching primary science: low student engagement, lack of ready-made resources, and supporting non-specialist teachers.
Together we will also explore how the programme uses interactive digital tools like virtual labs and animated videos, mascot-led learning, and research-based pedagogy to build curiosity and scientific skills from an early age.
A recording of the session, together with the presentation slides, will be shared with everyone who registers.
