24 December – Science Fact
Snowflakes aren’t all unique—but no two form in exactly the same way. ❄️

Small changes in temperature and humidity shape every crystal.
That’s science in action, even during the winter break. 🔬

🚨 New piece in @TesScotland exposes a hidden crisis in our classrooms: the sharp decline in school technicians supporting STEM across Scotland.
Our future innovators need more than good intentions — they need support.

Disappearing technicians a ‘hidden crisis’ in Scottish schools
‘Without us, the hands-on side of education simply can’t happen,’ say secondary school technicians - but survey shows their number has more than halved in two decades, says Alastair MacGregor
