It is the intention of the Science curriculum to provide opportunities for students to develop a love and an understanding of science. Through the spiralling of ‘big ideas’ starting in year 7 students will gradually build on their knowledge of core science concepts, recalling previous knowledge whilst extending with new content. Through the integration of practical activities and projects, students will gain vital skills and understanding of core science concepts whilst allowing them to become true scientists, providing them the opportunity to question, research and understand the world around them.
