Science
Key Stage 3 students study a 12 unit course that introduces the principles of science in an informed and kinaesthetic way. The emphasis is on group learning and improving practical skills.
Key Stage 4 students study Edexcel Core Science over 2 years giving extra time to develop practical skills and learn the syllabus as thoroughly as possible.
The emphasis in Year 10 is engagement and enjoying science, while doing practical’s in pairs or groups of 3 to further develop their skills.
Year 11 students are encouraged to be more independent and responsible for their own learning. Promising students will have the opportunity to study Additional science (2 GCSEs) on a course of individual tuition and homework.
