Science Vision

“ Effective teaching allows us to immerse, inspire and challenge all children in science –  to think scientifically and practically explore scientific ideas, learn content and procedural knowledge”

Principles

•Science will be immersive, inspiring and inclusive for all children
•All children will ask questions, actively explore and share scientific ideas
•All children will make progress because teachers will use a variety of approaches, strategies and resources
•All children will make connections to other topics drawing on their own pre existing knowledge
•Teachers will assess during every lesson to enable further teaching and learning
•The curriculum will challenge all children through planned progression in content and procedural knowledge

Our Curriculum enables pupils to:
  • develop scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics
  • develop understanding of the nature, processes and methods of science through different types of science enquiries that help them to answer scientific questions about the world around them
  • are equipped with the scientific knowledge required to understand the uses and implications of science, today and for the future
