Home / Primary Phase / Curriculum / Subjects / Science
Our Science curriculum has been built with knowledge and understanding of our context and community as a secure base. It is underpinned by our school values (hope, perseverance, wisdom, love, respect & faith), driving our purpose for education, which is to enable all pupils to flourish and grow and ‘live life in all its fullness’. In the early years and primary phase at Harleston Sancroft Academy knowledge-rich, vocabulary-driven and skills-based learning empowers children to become confident, curious and articulate individuals. By ensuring that all year groups and children have the opportunity to engage in different types of enquiry and develop their ‘working scientifically’ skills, our Science curriculum illustrates clear and consistent progression, enabling children to question, review and reflect upon previous learning.
Within Harleston we strive to be both a school and a community that works together and flourishes together, with visits and visitors that enrich our children’s experiences and opportunities, from collaborative science fairs to environmentally based trips.
