Acknowledgements The evaluation study and the production of this report has only been possible with the assistance of a large number of people. The authors and the Royal Society of Chemistry would like to acknowledge and thank the following: We would also like to acknowledge and thank all the teachers who volunteered their time and their insights in spite of their daily pressures. Without their involvement the study could not have succeeded. We are particularly indebted to the teachers and the students who allowed us into their classrooms to observe and interview and RSC in-service training providers, especially those who allowed us into their workshops and the teachers who were their students. Thank you.
