I hadn’t come across this before, but apparently In July 2020, Harvard University held a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded online workshop titled 'Building a Network to Support and Improve High-School Physics Education'.
The plan was to bring together a group of secondary school physics educators, administrators and methodology experts to discuss the current state of high school physics teaching, and to explore ways to improve.
And from that the international PoLS-T Network was begun as a resource to support high school physics teaching and teachers and is a result of that initial Summer workshop. They’ve been hosting a series of online talks - all available online - and this Saturday - at 4pm Irish time - they’re hosting Joe Cossette who will give a talk entitled:
From Mission to Revision: The Iterative Process of Teaching Physics"
Thanks to Paul Nugent for bringing this up.
