‘Education is not about the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.’ – W.B. Yates
We explore, discover and make sense of the world around us through practical, hands-on experiences both within and outside our school. We are curious and ask questions so that we can develop our knowledge and scientific skills. To find out more about the science we learn in each year group, click on our long-term plan below.
