This papershares the results of this partnership between education staff, teachers, and philosophers,including educational resources produced as artifacts of the program which integrated a diversityof pedagogical approaches to teaching ethics in secondary STEM classrooms.Framing literatureThe study of ethics, including neuroethics, is increasingly being integrated into engineeringeducation at the college and graduate level. At the precollege level, ethics are sometimesincorporated into the curriculum in humanities and science classrooms, however less is knownabout neuroethics education within these precollege contexts.

This could include a minimum of three Scottish Highers, A-Levelsalongside the Welsh Baccalaureate, the IB.”2In order for this mechanism to be meaningful, there must be consistency in the teaching of, andawarding of, A-Levels across the schools of the UK.
