Within Blue Hills Federation science planned to stimulate and excite children’s natural curiosity about the world around them, linking meaningful practical experiences with scientific ideas.
Children undertake experiments and investigations to allow them to acquire and develop their own scientific understanding and knowledge. Science is taught weekly and follows a scheme of work based on the programmes of study from the National Curriculum and linked into topic and annual events, where possible.
This approach leaves the children with a developing curiosity for scientific facts and processes whilst respecting our world. Pupils link these ideas to caring for our developing planetary ecosystems.
