Purpose of Study

At Southridge we aim to provide children with a science curriculum that inspires and excites them to become curious learners. Practical experiences allow them to develop their scientific skills and make links with real-life science and scientists. We are proud to hold Primary Science Quality Mark Gold which reflects the quality of our science curriculum.

The National Curriculum States that 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, and all pupils should be taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. Through building up a body of key foundational knowledge and concepts, pupils should be encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. They should be encouraged to understand how science can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will behave, and analyse causes.
