Intent
Within the teaching of Science at Osmotherley School, we want to encourage a curiosity and fascination of the world around them. There will be an emphasis on developing and deepening scientific knowledge and ‘working and thinking scientifically’ will be taught throughout the content of the programme of study. Hands-on, practical science, using the opportunities afforded by our local environment and Forest Schools, will allow the children opportunities for deliberate practise, to embed scientific knowledge and skills in their long-term memories.
Science at Osmotherley will taught by delivering the statutory requirements of the Science National Curriculum in Key Stage 1 and 2. Reception children will explore Science through the EYFS framework, looking closely at the Specific Area of Understanding the World and Personal, Social and Emotional Development.
