We want our children to leave us knowing that they can change the world...

Science at Pattishall CE Primary School

Intentions

At Pattishall CE Primary School, we believe that Science is a body of knowledge built up through experimental testing of ideas. Science is a journey of discovery which should be begun through a process of exploring the base concepts, then using the process of enquiry to understand how this knowledge can be applied. It is a theoretical and practical way of finding reliable answers to questions we may ask about the world around us. Science in our school is about developing children’s understanding of the world around them, and the practical applications of the skills they are learning – demonstrating why Science is such an important subject. We believe that a broad and balanced science education is the entitlement of all children, regardless of ethnic origin, gender, class, aptitude or disability. 


Our intended impacts in teaching science include the following: 

• Preparing our children for life in an increasingly scientific and technological world today and in the future. 

• Helping our children acquire a growing understanding of the nature, processes and methods of scientific ideas. 

• Helping develop and extend our children’s scientific concept of their world. 

• Building on our children’s natural curiosity and developing a scientific approach to problems. 

• Encouraging open-mindedness, self-assessment, perseverance and developing the skills of investigation – including: observing, measuring, predicting, hypothesising, experimenting, communicating, interpreting, explaining and evaluating. 

• Developing the use of scientific language, recording and techniques. 

• Developing the use of computing in investigating and recording. 

• Making links between science and other subjects.
