We want our children to remember their Science lessons and embrace the science opportunities they are presented with. We encourage the children to develop their sense of curiosity and build on their enquiry skills towards the natural world by providing inspirational and engaging lessons both inside and outside of the classroom. We ensure that we provide a broad and balanced science curriculum that evokes excitement and an awareness of the world around them.
Our whole school Science Curriculum is based on the National Curriculum 2014, and our KS1 and KS2 rolling programmes provide a careful sequence of learning so that the children build on what has been taught before; this helps them develop their skills, knowledge and related vocabulary from year group to year group.
We endeavour to incorporate Science concepts into other areas of learning, such as Forest school-type activities, Maths, and Computing lessons. In addition to our science lessons, we plan to hold science events in school where the children have the opportunity to work together to explore and celebrate science in the world around them.
