Your school wants to increase the percentage of its students studying science subjects to advanced level. The head teacher has asked you to write a report on attitudes towards science among the students. Your report should evaluate the appeal of science at the school, explain why comparatively few students want to become scientists, and suggest ways of encouraging more of them to consider a future career in science.

Concern has been expressed about a relative lack of interest in science as a school subject or future career. This report focuses on the views of students and puts forward suggestions for improving the image of science. The vast majority of students who opt for science subjects feel they made the right decision. They enjoy conducting experiments in the well-equipped laboratories and appreciate the fact that the teaching staff are more highly qualified than their counterparts in arts subjects. In consequence, science students believe they are learning in a more stimulating environment. Unfortunately, however, some students think twice before choosing sciences, owing to their reputation as comparatively difficult subjects that involve memorising facts and figures. Moreover, there is a widespread belief that high marks are harder to obtain in the sciences. In addition, science has a serious image problem. Many are discouraged by the perceived lack of glamour of science as a profession, by film stereotypes of mad professors and computer geeks, and by the suspicion with which the media often treat scientific research, for instance concerning genetically modified food. To create a more positive impression of science, students should be invited to participate in Science Fair projects, scientific work experience programmes and virtual Open Days at university science faculties. They should also be made aware of the benefits of studying science, such as developing thinking skills, discovering how things work and – one day – finding real solutions to real problems.
