What’s happening?

Leeds Trinity University is proud to present Professor Leigh Hoath's Inaugural Professorial Lecture: Imagineering context, culture and climate.

Professor Leigh Hoath leads science education at Leeds Trinity University. She is the current Co-Chair of the Association for Science Education (ASE), and co-founded Climate Adapted Pathways for Education (CAPE). CAPE leads a visionary initiative – propelling over 90 schools into evidence-informed action in response to the climate crisis.

Alongside these roles she is an author of science books across the primary and secondary age phases and acts as a consultant to the world’s largest chemical company, BASF, and to BBC Teach where she developed the Blue Planet Live teacher resources.

In her talk, Leigh will harness her expertise in science education and climate change education to dive deep into the intricate entanglements of context, culture, and climate in moulding the professional practices of teachers and school leaders.

Following the lecture, guests are invited to enjoy a light buffet and refreshments.
