A collaborative venture, set up by the Physics Department of Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, to provide practical support for school Physics departments in carrying out and assessing the practical elements of SQA Higher and Advanced Higher Physics. The venture allows school students to work in a university environment and in this way strengthens the links between school and university.
