Pupils' Attitudes towards Primary and Secondary Science

Pupils' attitudes towards science, shaped in primary school, significantly impact their experiences in secondary education. The enjoyment of practical lessons and innovative teaching methods is influenced by the teacher's personal attributes and classroom environment. This thesis examines various facets of science education, identifying areas of both positive and negative pupil attitudes. It employs diverse research methods, including case studies, interviews, and questionnaires, to gather comprehensive insights and suggest strategies for enhancing students' perceptions of science.
