Dress up as gorillas, use kitchen implements to pick up fruit and nuts to understand diversity among Galapagos finches, and debate the validity of intelligent design. All techniques used by a secondary science teacher to teach her KS4 class about Darwin and the theory of evolution. This programme shows how Caroline Molyneux, Head of Science at Balshaw CofE High School, uses these innovative and lively techniques to help her with teaching what can sometimes be a tricky subject. Her controversial approach of encouraging a student debate about creationism versus evolution involves the school chaplain, who provides guidance to the pupils on creationist views.
