We are investing up to £67m over the term of this Parliament to recruit and train more mathematics and physics teachers, and offering bursaries and scholarships to attract top graduates into mathematics and science teaching. We are also providing support to schools to raise the quality of mathematics and science teaching through programmes such as the network of Maths Hubs and Science Learning Partnerships, and the Network of Teaching Excellence in Computer Science. Two of these programmes, the Stimulating Physics Network and the Further Maths Support Programme, have a particular focusing on engaging more girls in mathematics and physics.</p><p>The Government also supports STEM Ambassadors, a nationwide network of over 30,000 volunteers from a wide range of STEM employers and businesses. STEM Ambassadors engage with pupils to provide stimulating and inspirational activities to increase their interest in STEM subjects and to raise awareness of the range of careers that STEM qualifications offer.</p>

These will therefore not be affected by the UK leaving the EU. Patents owned by UK businesses with effect for the UK will continue to be governed by national law.</p><p> </p><p>In contrast, the EU trade mark is a unitary right with effect for the whole of the EU. When the UK leaves the European Union, EU trade marks will still be available to UK business and existing EU trade marks will continue to offer protection in other Member States. We are consulting businesses and actively considering how existing EU trade marks can continue to provide protection in the UK.</p><p><strong> </strong></p> more like this
