BSF – “is not just a building programme. (It) .. Aims to create learning environments which inspire all young people …; provide teachers with 21st Century work places…; provide access to facilities … by all members of the local community” BSFChief Executive, Tim Byles: “BSF allows us to banish thoughts of schools from the past. Good science and good science teaching is based on rigorous principles of observation and experiment. Science educators, having considered what they want to be happening in school science laboratories in the future, are best placed to work with design teams to ensure that teaching and learning spaces serve these requirements. Not only that, they should ensure that the physical and virtual learning environment is designed to maximise flexibility for future development.”
