• In recent years, school science curricula have been updated to include requirements for teachers to raise awareness of scientific issues with their pupils...

• ...but they may find these sorts of issues difficult to manage in the classroom.

If you are interested in more ideas about handling discussion activities in science lessons, there is another CPDU called 'Discussions in Primary Science' based on the AZSTT funded DiPS project.
