Science

We aim to grow scientists

“We aim to develop children’s understanding, enjoyment, and interest in science so that they understand the impact science has on our lives and the world in which we live.  We encourage children to be inquisitive learners and inspire future budding scientists.”

Our teachers aim to nurture a love for the natural world and excitement for future possibilities in science, as well as providing opportunities for pupils to investigate and respond creatively in their learning. We try to harness their natural excitement and curiosity and inspire them to pursue scientific enquiry, both now and in the future.

Scientific enquiry should create exciting and memorable learning and stimulate interest in science. It builds reasoning and problem solving. Key components: observation, pattern seeking, identifying, classifying and grouping, comparative and fair testing and research. We combine scientific enquiry with acquiring knowledge and working scientifically skills. This enables our pupils to develop a good understanding of science and the world around them.

Science Vision & Principles

Children, staff, parents/carers and governors were involved in the creation of our Science Vision and Principles. Staff are trained to deliver learning in line with these principles and the principles are regularly shared with learners, in order to promote enthusiasm, curiosity and passion for the subject, school-wide.

Please see our vision and principles documents below.
