Women and Science Teaching (1965, No. 10)
That, in view of the present need for scientists and technologists of a high level and of the small number of women qualifying in scientific subjects, the NFAs should do all in their power:
- To encourage the teaching of science to girls from an early age, with the provision of adequate laboratory facilities;
- To make available to girls vocational guidance about scientific work;
- To induce industry and scientific organisations to consider women for appointment and promotion, on equal terms with men:
- To encourage professional associations and universities to sponsor refresher courses to enable married women to return to scientific work in later life.
