Science Department

With our passionate teaching staff, purpose-built laboratories and wealth of resources, we provide a safe learning environment where pupils can flourish and develop their understanding of Science

Our intent is to ensure that learners understand scientific knowledge, develop practical skills and high levels of vocabulary to value the importance of scientific developments and further promote curiosity, ethics and the wide variety of career pathways that Science can lead to.

During Years 7 and 8, students follow the KS3 National Curriculum. Students in Year 9 cover the transition content. At the end of Year 9 students choose whether to continue with Combined Science course or opt for Triple Science.

We follow the OCR Gateway A specification : GCSE Combined Science awards two GCSE Science whereas GCSE Triple Science awards 3 GCSEs separately for Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

Throughout the whole course of study we use engaging textbooks, revision guides, workbooks, rigorous testing and online resources to support pupils learning.
