Science

We believe in making scientific learning active and engaging. We follow the Kapow scheme of work to deliver the National Curriculum expectations. The subject knowledge content and the working scientifically skills are set out for each year group. Teaching and learning is supported by relevant trips, visits, visitors and workshops to enhance and deepen children’s understanding and skills. Teaching and learning is sometimes blocked to give more time to explore concepts in depth.

Teacher’s assess children’s learning against learning objectives for each unit of work. Assessment is supported by end of unit tests where appropriate. A termly teacher assessment is recorded on the school tracking system.
