Science

Linking the how and why with super scientific experiences.

Within the Blue pathway students are exposed to the awe and wonder of the world around them. They experience and make observations of scientific concepts and begin to link experiences and promote familiar reactions.

Within the Yellow pathway students use developing enquiry skills and deepening knowledge to develop interest, enjoyment and enthusiasm in Science.  We encourage our students to relate science to everyday life through the use of everyday materials and situations.

Within the Green pathway we use approaches such as TEACCH, sensory stories, messy play investigation, parachute games, making choices, attention building and problem solving. Students develop their resilience and thinking skills to help them link scientific ideas through exploration and engagement.

Within the Purple pathway our learners are exposed to scientific concepts and begin to link ideas through simple investigation and experience of science in the world around them. 

Take a look at our subject guide to see how Science teaching is put into action.
