The image is a promotional graphic for "The Science Teaching Survey 2026" featuring logos of several organizations: Royal Society of Chemistry, The Royal Society, Royal Society of Biology, IOP Institute of Physics, and ASE Association for Science Education. The design includes a colourful, abstract map of the UK. The text asks, "What's missing in science education? Tell us what you need."
