St Swithun's Church of England Primary Academy
Valuing individuals, aspiring and achieving together in faith
Our St Swithun's curriculum for Science
The Subject Leader for Science is Mrs Ogden
We recognise the importance of Science in every aspect of daily life. As one of the core subjects taught in Primary Schools, we give the teaching and learning of Science the priority it requires.
The Scientific area of learning is concerned with increasing pupils’ knowledge and understanding of our world, and with developing skills associated with Science as a process of enquiry. Through Science we will develop the natural curiosity of the child, encourage respect for living organisms and the physical environment and provide opportunities for critical evaluation of evidence.
