Science
General Overview
Science lessons aim to promote enthusiasm and curiosity throughout the curriculum. We have an established history of promoting and rethinking scientific literacy which help students to achieve their target grades. Unfamiliar vocabularies are emphasised on to further support their scientific literacy. The lessons are designed to include practical and educational trips relating to Chemistry, Physics and Biology.
Key Stage 3
During Key Stage 3 Science, students are introduced to a range of topics within Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Science is linked to the wider context to ensure that students can apply the scientific topics to the things that they see and interact with everyday. Students also develop a range of scientific skills through a range of practical experiments.
Key Stage 4
There are two pathways for KS4 students in Science – the GCSE route (9 – 1) and the Entry Level Certificate (ELC Route).
