Children are naturally inquisitive and like to explore the world around them. We treasure our children’s curiosity and maximise it through innovative teaching which fosters their enjoyment and interest for the subject. Children at Uley thoroughly enjoy asking questions, designing investigations and carrying out their own practical experiments. We help our pupils to become confident investigators and enjoy both independent and group-based tasks. We aim to ensure that children learn and develop the necessary skills of enquiry required to be an able scientist and support them in developing their understanding of how to: •carry out fair tests;
•make logical predictions;
•record results accurately;
•use ICT to create appropriate charts and graphs; and
•make conclusions about their learning, using appropriate scientific knowledge, understanding and vocabulary.
