Science

At King Edwin Primary School, we plan our Science curriculum to cover the aims of the National Curriculum.

 

The teaching of Science:

 

  • Enables children to make sense of the world around them. 

  • Explores the importance of Science and how scientists have led to huge developments in our country and the rest of the world. 

  • Encourages children to ask and seek answers to questions about how and why things work. 

  • Provides rich experiences within the classroom, the local community and beyond. 

  • Embeds a secure knowledge of science alongside the skills of working scientifically. 

 
The National Curriculum for Science can be found here.
We teach the skills needed to work scientifically using the following enquiry types and symbols. Children are made aware of these in each lesson so that they develop an understanding of the different skills they are learning.
