Our Principles of Science Teaching

 

We know that great science happens in our school when:

 

  • Science is practical and explorative, allowing children to engage in hands-on activities.

  • Children are inquisitive, using their investigative skills to ask questions and seek answers.

  • Learners take the lead in their scientific inquiries and investigations.

  • Science lessons make connections to real-world scenarios, helping children see the relevance of what they learn.

  • Science challenges and engages students, sparking their interest and enthusiasm.

  • Children work scientifically, including conducting fair tests and honing their investigative skills.
