At St Joseph’s we aim to promote a love and enthusiasm for science and to master new skills and knowledge when working scientifically.

We want our children to be able to notice patterns and observe changes within their learning. Our teaching will also enable children to use their mathematical knowledge to analyse scientific data from experiments. Children will embrace science through practical tasks and in the outdoor environment.

We aim to challenge children’s pre-conceptions of what science is and remove barriers that make them think that they cannot enjoy or understand scientific concepts. We want to remove the idea of barriers surrounding gender, race, disability or aptitude in relation to accessing science and make children aware the importance of diversity and that all types of learners can achieve in science.
