We aim to grow children’s science capital through enquiry-based opportunities and hands-on experiences. We promote the importance of science and scientific advancement in the 21st century, encouraging our young scientists to think about how science contributes to the world’s future prosperity.

We believe it is vital that children are given opportunities to make meaningful links between classroom learning and the real world. Using the five types of scientific enquiry alongside our school’s rich environment, online resources, the local area and educational visits linked with the Pioneer Passport, children are immersed in science and encouraged to ask questions, test ideas and reflect on their knowledge.

Our curriculum develops independent scientists who understand important scientific ideas, processes and skills, and who can relate these to their everyday lives. We foster a culture of curiosity, collaboration and critical thinking so that all children are inspired to explore the world around them and see themselves as capable scientists.
