At Balksbury Federation, we believe science should be engaging, hands-on and high quality. We develop children’s understanding of working scientifically across Physics, Biology and Chemistry through carefully mapped skills. As children progress through Balksbury, they build scientific knowledge, curiosity and conceptual understanding of the world around them through observation and exploration. High-quality questioning promotes higher-order thinking, while investigations and research provide challenge and opportunity for all learners, equipping children with the scientific knowledge and skills they need for today and the future.
