JON Wasey

Science and Chemistry Education Consultancy

I provide subject-specialist support for science and chemistry educational content, drawing on more than twenty years’ experience teaching Science across KS3 and GCSE and Chemistry at A Level and IB Diploma level.

My work includes reviewing educational materials for scientific accuracy, curriculum alignment, clarity and suitability for learners. I can also support the development of teaching resources, assessments, explanations and curriculum-based content for schools, publishers and educational media.

Recent consultancy work has included advising Heehaw Productions on a proposal for a 15-part BBC Bitesize GCSE Chemistry video series, reviewing content for scientific accuracy, specification coverage and suitability for GCSE learners.

Areas I can support with include:
- Science and Chemistry content review
- Curriculum and specification alignment
- Scientific accuracy checking
- KS3 and GCSE resource development
- Assessment development
- Clear explanations of complex scientific concepts
