Science

Primary Science is about children developing a sense of enquiry and extending their knowledge of the world around them.

Our science lessons are planned to do this by developing their skills, knowledge and understanding.

Opportunities will be provided to:

• ask questions

• predict and hypothesise (say why and how things happen)

• develop relevant language

• plan and carry out fair tests

• record and communicate their findings

We aim to develop the children’s interests and curiosity, open-mindedness, co-operation, responsibility and creativeness, as well as respect for all living creatures and their environments. We want our children to develop both perseverance and the ability to search for answers to their questions without always asking for adult guidance.
