It's amazing to see our students achieving top grades across such a broad curriculum - this year's cohort have been challenged in subjects such as Further Maths, Astronomy, Latin and Classical Greek, with some studying in co-curricular time to gain these extra qualifications.

Also improve retention. This will improve the educational outcomes of the country as experienced teachers have a wealth of knowledge and skills that are not taught on training courses but gained through practice. #35years&counting

The CMBR. Can anyone tell me the rough wavelength/frequency of it when it was first created and exactly how this has changed with time during the intervening epochs? As I read more about it I am realising how little I truly understand it. 🤔

Following on from my tweets yesterday, if you want a recruit a physicist you *have* to make the role attractive. The last time I had to recruit, I made the benefits of working in my department very clear. We had *fifteen* candidates which is almost unheard of.

***PHYSICS TEACHING JOB*** I'm now up to 20 reasons why you should apply to be a physics teacher in my department in London. Forgot a couple of big ones yesterday: -You can go home after your last commitment of the day. -If you need to relocate you can apply for a 10k loan.
