Secondary Teachers

Science has immediate application in our everyday lives. Chemistry in particular has a direct impact on materials, consumer products, energy supplies, food, health and the environment. The aim of the CIEC is to support the teaching and learning of science by creating resources that help pupils and students understand science through the context in which it is encountered, and the industries that rely on it.

Through a combination of resource packs, reference books and free-access web sites, many areas of the science curriculum are covered, from polymers, chlorine and hydrogen to food additives, sustainability and risk.

Post 16 Students

Some of our publications are aimed specifically at post-16 studies, including the popular reference book The Essential Chemical Industry (now in its fourth edition), its companion volume, The Essential Plastics Industry, and two of our web sites, Catalysis and Greener Industry.

Note: The Catalysis site has a new web address: www.catalysis-ed.org.uk
