At St Bert’s scientists can investigate and question the world around them by conducting experiments and recording their findings using appropriate scientific vocabulary. Our children develop an awe and wonder about the world they live in which encourages them to question and explore. They will be inspired to be just like any famous scientist.
Through Developing Experts and the teaching of science, children are encouraged to be inquisitive throughout their time at school and beyond. The Science curriculum fosters a healthy curiosity in children about our universe and promotes respect for the living and non-living. We believe science encompasses the acquisition of knowledge, concepts, skills and positive attitudes. Throughout the programme of study, the children will acquire and develop the key knowledge that has been identified within each unit and across each year group, as well as the application of scientific skills. We ensure that the ‘Working Scientifically’ skills are built-on and developed throughout children’s time at the school so that they can apply with knowledge of science when using equipment, conducting experiments, building arguments and explaining concepts confidently which enable them to continue to ask questions and be curious about their surroundings.
