Science

The Science Education at Woodside provides children with vast opportunities to think independently and to raise questions about working scientifically. In doing this, they acquire a deep scientific knowledge and understanding as well as a love for scientific enquiry. Lessons fuel a passion for science and its application in past, present and future technologies, leading to all pupils having confidence and competence in the full range of practical skills. All children are facilitated to plan and carry out scientific investigations using our state-of-the-art science lab. During these lessons pupils gain the skills to undertake practical work in a variety of contexts. All staff at Woodside aim for their pupils to have high levels of originality, imagination or innovation in the application of scientific skills. We facilitate innovative, inquiry-based approaches to science, which directly promote the pupils’ decision making and creativity. This learning is showcased in written and verbal explanations, including their ability to solve challenging problems and report their scientific findings.
