Science Subject Progression Framework

 

At Bishop Perrin School, our science curriculum is designed to encourage curiosity, exploration and wonder of the scientific world. We endeavour to provide a progressive curriculum, which is based on the key scientific skills, allowing for practical activities, which are challenging and engaging for all. Children will develop scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics.

Throughout the programmes of study, the children will acquire and develop the key knowledge that has been identified within each unit and across each year group, as well as the application of scientific skills. We ensure that the working scientifically skills are built-on and developed throughout children’s time at the school so that they can apply their knowledge of science when using equipment, conducting experiments, building arguments and explaining concepts confidently and continue to ask questions and be curious about their surroundings.
