Science

At New Scotland Hill:

We realise that all children have natural passion and curiosity about learning. We understand that learning and discovery about the world comes from hands-on experiences through exploration and investigation. We call this the joy of finding out.

 

Our vision is to offer opportunities that are real, that embrace the outdoors and nurture children’s curiosity and love of learning about the world. We will do this through a science curriculum which enables them to confidently explore and discover the world whilst enabling them to deepen their understanding.

 

We aim to provide lessons firmly rooted in scientific enquiry with practical hands-on experiences that encourage curiosity and questioning to help deepen understanding. These lessons, which consolidate prior knowledge, are rooted in scientific skills and vocabulary that help to avoid scientific misconceptions and encourage children’s meaningful understanding of the world.

 

Our science curriculum will promote and develop transferrable skills such as observation, data collection and analysis, communication and team work that will support each child as they explore the world as lifelong learners.
