Here at Sudbury, our class teachers love to teach science! Pupils will be provided with opportunities to carry out practical experiments and apply their knowledge of science to the real world. They will be covering the National Curriculum through our project-based curriculum.
Our vision is to stimulate pupils' curiosity and encourage them to confidently explore and discover the world around them, so that they develop a greater understanding of how and why things happen.
Pupils will be regularly assessed after each lesson.
Science will be embedded in the school’s new creative-project based curriculum.
