Science

Golden Threads:

Asking and Answering Questions
Practical Enquiries
Recording/Presenting Findings

Our Science curriculum is designed to ensure that pupils know how to ‘be a scientist’. We will do this through enabling all pupils to develop:

a curiosity and interest in science.
skills in scientific problem solving.
scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics.
their use of scientific vocabulary, enabling them to talk confidently about a range of scientists and scientific discoveries.
a love or appreciation of science.

Science is a fantastic opportunity for children to explore the world around them and ask challenging and thought-provoking questions. It gives them the chance to learn and develop a range of skills which they can use throughout their life. Science breeds curiosity, curiosity fosters knowledge, knowledge leads to wisdom – but most of all…it’s fun!
