    ScotGov Teacher Intake Figures 2025: Physics: Target 131, Actual 42 Chemistry: Target 159, Actual 54 Biology: Target 163, Actual 88 Maths: Target 250, actual 75(!) These are worrying figures caused (imo) by a lack of permanent jobs post probation. Something must be done

    The challenges facing Computing Science are so intertwined, but I remain completely optimistic that we can fix them. This isn't an impossible situation – it's fixable! #SaveComputingScience

    We need ‘strategic interventions’ to arrest decline, says computing science teaching campaigner. Toni Scullion says latest teacher census numbers are "alarming" for the subject, but recruitment issues can be solved with the right policies ⬇️

    😔 💔 to see this, but not at all surprising! CS continues to have the least number of teachers compared to traditional STEM subjects, the least places to train as a teacher, the worst overall uptake and the largest gender gap. #SaveComputingScience

    It's concerning to see that the number of CS teachers in Scotland has fallen further to 550, down from the already critically low figure of 578 reported last year. #SaveComputingScience

    🚨Does anyone know the rationale of why Admin & IT are officially a practical subject but Computing Science and Business aren't? What is the criteria for Admin & IT that makes it a practical subject but not Computing Science or Business? #SaveComputingScience @BusEdScotland

    Wow!! CS in Scottish schools is yet to be a core subject, no equity of access and compared to STEM subjects, CS has the worst uptake, largest gender gap & least amount of teachers 💔 #SaveComputingScience

    Political leaders must act now to save computing science in Scotland, according to the teacher behind a hugely successful “gold mine” of lesson content for educators. ⬇️

    This is great to see! Fantastic to hear @djohnsonmsp highlight the issue of lack of CS teachers being "national importance" & of "critical importance to the tech sector." We are 9 CS teachers away from having the lowest number of CS teachers on record. #SaveComputingScience

    Great to see this mentioned. "Tech entrepreneurs will highlight the importance of CS teachers in our schools...what is more we are only seeing handfuls CS teachers going through teacher training. This is an issue of national importance." @djohnsonmsp #SaveComputingScience

    Another great statistic regarding the digital technology sector in Scotland and more reason why we need to champion CS in all schools. #SaveComputingScience

    "Why aren’t more girls in the UK choosing to study computing & technology?" CS in Scotland has the largest gender gap compared to the other traditional STEM subjects & has done for a long time. CS is yet to be taught in every school. #SaveComputingScience

    😔 💔 to see this, but not sure it's at all surprising, and CS continues to have the least number of teachers compared to traditional STEM subjects. Innovative solutions needed!! #SaveComputingScience

    Recent teacher census numbers show there are 578 CS teachers, the lowest recorded. CS teachers are key for equity of access to the subject. Although teacher recruitment challenges are not unique to Scotland, we need to fix it! #SaveComputingScience
