πŸ˜” πŸ’” 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.

Anyone got any good ways to track BGE progress including gathering evidence?

Even across other subjects or countries to get some ideas?
