Exceptional opportunities exist to engage, develop and enrich science students and their teachers through access to the cutting-edge Faulkes Telescopes (FTs). The FT South (sited in Australia) is the world's largest dedicated to educational use with Australia enjoying a 15% share as the host country of this exceptional educational initiative. Operated remotely via the internet, the FT provides natural links to ICT, on-line learning, physics, astronomy and mathematics. Given appropriate support, it can play a valuable role in re-engaging students in science and enhancing science education and literacy outcomes in Australian schools over the next 20 years.

通过使用尖端的福克斯望远镜 (FT)，存在着绝佳的机会来吸引、发展和丰富科学学生及其教师。 FT South（位于澳大利亚）是世界上最大的致力于教育用途的机构，澳大利亚作为这一特殊教育计划的东道国，占有 15% 的份额。英国《金融时报》通过互联网远程操作，提供与信息通信技术、在线学习、物理、天文学和数学的自然链接。如果给予适当的支持，它可以在未来 20 年让学生重新参与科学、提高澳大利亚学校的科学教育和扫盲成果方面发挥宝贵的作用。
