Proud to be part of LJMU,
in partnership with the Dill Faulkes Educational Trust

 

 

The Schools' Observatory aims to inspire students and support educators in the fascinating world of space and astronomy. We are delighted to offer CPD (Continuing Professional Development) training for educators. Made with the UK and Irish curricula in mind, and completely free thanks to the generous funding provided by Liverpool John Moores University. 

We are currently upgrading our online CPD resources for teachers. The new materials are interactive, flexible and you can study at your own pace. We will be adding more courses throughout the year. 

You can explore the wide range of resources available on this site to utilise in the classroom, as well as topic knowledge and common misconceptions.
