A number of months ago, I met a group who spoke to me, as Chair of Joint Committee on Education, Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, about the shortage of physics teachers and the crisis that is rapidly coming down the tracks. There is a lack of young people who see that as an attractive career and I am not sure why maybe. Mr. Curtis might be able to educate me on that. Is it down to the way it is being taught? Does the curriculum need to be changed, reviewed or overhauled?
