Science is a journey of discovery, and at Weald Primary School, we aim to inspire curiosity and enthusiasm by helping children explore and understand the world around them. Through engaging lessons, hands-on investigations, and real-world applications, we develop pupils’ scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding across biology, chemistry, and physics.

We believe science is not just about learning facts but about fostering a spirit of enquiry. Pupils are encouraged to ask questions, predict outcomes, and carry out investigations that help them explain how things work and why they happen. By developing their ability to reason, analyze, and think systematically, they gain the confidence to apply scientific knowledge in everyday life. Our approach ensures that children can communicate their ideas clearly, work both independently and collaboratively, and see the real-world impact of science on society and the economy.

We are immensely proud of our extensive outdoor learning areas, which play a vital role in bringing science to life. Whether exploring plant life, investigating habitats, or conducting hands-on experiments, our outdoor spaces provide pupils with invaluable opportunities to apply their scientific skills in real-world contexts. These experiences not only deepen their understanding but also foster a lifelong appreciation for nature and the environment.

At Weald, we want children to see science as a fascinating and powerful tool for understanding the world. By nurturing their curiosity, encouraging them to investigate and analyze, and making the most of our exceptional outdoor learning spaces, we equip them for a future where science continues to shape and improve lives.
