Intent

To develop, regardless of gender, ability or background, children with knowledge and understanding of advances in science, famous scientists, important discoveries and scientific vocabulary, so that children are excited by science.

Our learning programmes have full coverage of the National Curriculum and also cover scientific questions around sustainability and the planet, and help children develop an empathy for the local and wider environment.
