TWO teachers have won an award for their teaching of science.
Joni White and Diane Buckle, of Framwellgate Primary School, Durham, received £100 for resources in the national Top Teacher award organised by the Ariel Stains and Science Schools Programme.
The programme, aimed at nine to 11-year-olds, is aligned with the National Curriculum and is designed to help pupils discover how science affects everyday chores such as doing the laundry.
Pupils carry out practical experiments and homework assignments with the family and are asked to design a washing tablet that will remove tough stains.
