Introduction
Students should learn essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. They should gain appreciation of how the complex and diverse phenomena of the natural world can be described in terms of a small number of key ideas that relate to the sciences and that are both inter-linked and of universal application.
Subject Leader: Mr A Wearden
Teachers: Ms C Duggan, Miss E Barden, Mr P Johnson, Mrs K Reed, Miss S Parkes, Miss L Elliott, Miss R Johnson
Mission Statement
Using evidence based practice, Students learn powerful knowledge that allows them to have limitless futures. |
Key ideas of the Science Curriculum include:
Here are a few things that you might want to know:
*9,9 ,means two grade 9s
How much practical Science will take place?
Practical activities happen during science lessons when relevant to the content. At least 155 of their GCSE exam contains practical based questions, therefore, your child will definitely have hands on experience of completing experiments.
What is the difference between Combined Science and Triple Science?
All science students study Biology, Chemistry and Physics; Triple students study more content in each science, therefore receiving 3 separate GCSEs, it is not an option to choose to study a single Science by itself.
