Science

“Making Science fun, practical and engaging so that learning is enjoyable and embedded.”

At Sandbrook we are committed to providing an excellent educational provision for all our children which will enable them to reach their full potential and attain the levels of knowledge, understanding and skills that society demands for their future lives.

Science is based on asking questions that stimulate curiosity and are rooted in real life problems that are relevant to our pupils. We take a ‘hands on’ approach to studying the sciences, where pupils: hypothesise, test out theories, present data and draw conclusions through engaging and inspiring activities across the key stages that are in line with The National Curriculum and Development Matters Framework. We want all our pupils to have passion and show enthusiasm for the subject, through a deep understanding of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science, beginning with the Early Years. By providing children with experiential learning we endeavour to build upon their skills as they move through the key stages, producing well rounded scientists! Children at Sandbrook are given the means to draw upon their own curiosity through enquiry based questioning, allowing them to explore their own questions through discussions, research and planning practical investigations in order to test their hypothesis.

We provide a happy, safe, caring and stimulating learning environment that promotes a love of learning in which all members of the school community are valued as individuals and are encouraged to reach their full potential.
