Science

Our science curriculum ensures the children will acquire and build upon the key knowledge and vocabulary that has been identified within each unit, making connections and linking their understanding to previous learning within the five themes: The Natural World, Materials, Pushes and Pulls, The Universe and Energy.  We foster children’s curiosities by encouraging them to ask and answer meaningful questions.  We ensure Working Scientifically skills are embedded into our lessons and developed as the children progress through the school so that they can become more proficient at applying their knowledge of science when using different types of enquiry, using their evidence to answer their questions and explain concepts, as well as to ask further questions.  With science being fundamental to understanding the ever-evolving world and how it affects our lives, we aim to equip children with the scientific knowledge and analytical skills required to recognise the uses and implications of science today and for the future.
