At Smawthorne Henry Moore Academy, we hope to develop the knowledge, skills and understanding of all children in all areas of Science. We aim to encourage the children to be keen, inquisitive scientists now and in the future. We will achieve this through varied opportunities and enriching activities. Children will be encouraged to ask scientific questions and develop their curiosity of the world around them.
We know that progression in knowledge, skills and understanding starts in Early Years and is built upon through high quality and engaging lessons. Each year group builds upon the previous year group’s curriculum to develop children’s knowledge. Over time, children will research information in books or on the internet, record scientific investigations and findings and use their maths skills when recording any results or predictions from investigations or from reading scales when measuring. Our Science curriculum is enriched through school visits and visitors, which creates opportunities for children to remember their lifelong learning experiences.
Through the #SmawthorneExperience, we aim to nurture our future Scientists and equip them with the knowledge and skills that they will need to further their scientific minds.
