Science

Growing, achieving and flourishing together in mind body and spirit.

Teaching Science at St George’s provides an exciting opportunity to learn and develop the foundations for understanding the world, through memorable, active and enjoyable experiences.

We provide our pupils with the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science, alongside developing a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. We believe it is vital for children to see the importance of science in our world, as Science has changed our lives and it is vital for the future. We want our children to be inspired and confident to know about future career paths in STEM subjects for the future.   

At St George’s we follow the White Rose Science progression of learning. Each science unit is designed to provide pupils with key concepts, which are taught practically where possible. This knowledge, along with these experiences inspire all pupils to be scientifically literate as they grow up, questioning the world around them and making links between different areas of learning. The ‘working scientifically’ aspect of the National Curriculum is an important part of science and these skills are mapped out to ensure progression.
