Intent
At Bearbrook, we want to inspire children to question, explore and develop an understanding of the world around them. We want to provide children with a high quality science education which provides the foundations for understanding the world through scientific knowledge and skills. We believe that the purpose of education is to inspire our children to become curious learners who have the confidence to try new things and see failure as a learning opportunity. At Bearbrook, children will be given the opportunity to share and discuss their own experiences and understanding of the world, to explore this through practical, hands on science activities and then reflect on how their new learning supports or contradicts existing ideas.
Science has changed our lives and is vital to the world’s future prosperity, and all pupils should be taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. Through building up a body of key foundational knowledge and concepts, pupils at Bearbrook should be encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena.
