Anderton Park Primary School
Science
At Anderton Park, it is our intention to recognise the importance of Science in every aspect of daily life. We give the teaching and learning of Science the prominence it requires as a core subject. The Scientific area of learning is concerned with increasing pupils’ knowledge and understanding of our world, and with developing working scientifically skills associated with science as a process of enquiry. It will develop the natural curiosity of the child, encourage respect for living organisms, the planet and the physical environment, providing opportunities for critical evaluation of evidence. We intend to build a science curriculum which develops learning, results in acquisition of scientific knowledge which transfers into other subject areas, such as; maths and technology, enabling the children to become autonomous enquiry-based learners.
