SCIENCE
Miss Priestley is St Thomas’ Science Leader. She is a passionate and enthusiastic teacher who is always looking at ways in which to develop children’s inquisitiveness, so that they are better able to question and understand the world around them.
Miss Priestley believes that through the learning of Science we can release a sense of ‘awe and wonder’ to encourage children to be curious and explore Science, both in school and outside of school through exciting and practical investigations.
Miss Priestley believes that by equipping children with the scientific knowledge they feel like real scientists.
At St Thomas’ our intention is preparing children today for a new tomorrow through our science teaching; equipping them with the scientific knowledge, giving all children a strong understanding of the world in which they live in.
The aim of the Science National Curriculum is to ensure that all pupils develop scientific knowledge and understanding about the world God created. We encourage an inquisitiveness, inspire a sense of awe and wonder and investigate the children’s curiosity through exciting and practical investigations ensuring the pupils feel like real scientists.
Children are encouraged to become global citizens as they begin to make sense of a changing world and explore how humans can have a positive and negative impact on the world.
We have recently been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark.
