Science

To be curious is the basis of teaching science at St Cuthbert’s School. Science enables children to refine their knowledge of the world around them. Through Science children observe, pose questions, predict and hypothesise about living things, materials and phenomena in the world. The subject provides a great opportunity for the application of linguistic and mathematical skills whilst undertaking practical investigations. Science promotes the development of key skills, such as, effective communication and co-operation with others, showing respect for differing opinions, perseverance when problem solving and reflection upon own learning and performance.
