I didn�t see the Q MrBen.
English? Or British? Are you saying that A-level students who are of Asian descent cannot be British or English? Should we be worried that young white British Alevel students are not doing chemistry? Perhaps, but then that shows their lack of ambition and vision, or just general lack of interest in chemistry. Whether our future chemists are black, white, asian or other � does it really matter?
I think the lack of interest in science in further education has long been a bone of contention, and now with programmes such as CSI and that other one with Amanda whatsername there has been an increase, so Maths is the new science, so to speak.
