At the Priory Voluntary Catholic Academy, 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 prominence it requires.
A high-quality science education provides the foundations for understanding the world through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics. Science has changed our lives and is vital to the world’s future prosperity. The pupils will be taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science.
Through building up a body of key knowledge and concepts, pupils will be encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. The pupils will be encouraged to understand how science can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will behave, and analyse causes.
