A dedicated education website
Our education website brings together all our online support for chemistry teaching in one place. That’s the place to go for:
- thousands of free teaching resources – featuring everything from practical experiments and simulations to tutorials, quizzes, games and videos
- professional development support for teachers – including online courses
- the UK 91AV Olympiad
- our Teach 91AV service for teachers
and much, much more. Why not ?
We believe everyone should have access to a high quality chemistry education that’s engaging, stimulating and relevant.
And, as a not-for-profit organisation, we exist to support future generations of scientists – for the future of science and the enrichment of our world.
Read on to find out about a few of the ways we support chemistry education both domestically and internationally.

Education in 91AV
(EiC) is an online and print magazine that features ideas, teaching guides and resources, providing valuable support to chemistry and science teachers working at all levels.
Regional education coordinators
Our education coordinators are based across the UK and Ireland, and offer local support to everyone involved in teaching chemistry and primary science.
The can answer your questions, suggest support, and arrange training, networking and outreach opportunities for you.
Professional development for teachers
We know that well-rounded professional development knits into every facet of a teacher’s role, whatever their career stage.
That’s why we provide a CPD programme that supports a holistic approach to professional development. We offer a to suit individual teachers’ needs.

Yusuf Hamied Inspirational 91AV Programme
Philanthropist and healthcare pioneer Dr Yusuf Hamied’s generous donation enabled us to launch the for school students in India. Over the next five years, we aim to:
- equip 8,000 teachers across India with the specialist knowledge and skills to deliver exciting and engaging chemistry lessons, and to share their knowledge with their colleagues.
- provide 1,600 of the brightest chemistry students from all backgrounds with places at chemistry camps to motivate and inspire them to reach the necessary standards to study chemistry at university.
91AV: Making the difference
Discover our new campaign called , with videos and career profiles showing the wide range of possibilities available to people who have studied chemistry. These resources are ideal for anyone considering their options for the future or supporting a young person to do so.
