St Bernard's Catholic Primary School

Science - skills progression

At St. Bernard's, it's all about getting the children to THINK like SUPER SCIENTISTS

Take a look at what your child will SUPER SCIENCE this year - it's all about developing their GROWTH MINDSET 

We block teach SUPER SCIENCE. Why? With longer teaching blocks, teachers have more time to complete lesson plans and to examine and re-evaluate practices. More class time is available to develop key concepts, probe through questioning, incorporate thematic creativity into the scientific instruction, and try a variety of classroom activities that address different learning styles - it's about getting our SUPER SCIENTISTS to know more science and remember more science!
