At Manorfield, our Science curriculum is designed to ignite curiosity, cultivate critical thinking, and foster a profound understanding of the natural world. We strive to equip pupils with the essential knowledge and skills necessary for exploring scientific concepts, developing practical abilities, and applying their learning to real-world situations.

The intent of our science curriculum places a significant emphasis on the development of both substantive knowledge, which encompasses the essential facts and information retained by pupils, and disciplinary knowledge, which includes the vital skills of scientific enquiry. Lessons are structured around thematic units of study, facilitating connections across various subjects. Teachers are afforded the flexibility to block science lessons for immersive experiences or deliver them sequentially, thereby supporting learning themes, reading, and writing. This adaptability promotes increased engagement and relevance to our pupils.

Further information will be posted in the autumn term.
