The Science curriculum at St Edmund’s is designed to bring science to everyday life, answering questions like ‘why do apples fall from trees’ or ‘how are vaccines developed’? We want learners to be naturally inquisitive, independent and critical in their thinking. This will enable them to develop the substantive and disciplinary knowledge required to understand the world around them. We want to impart a love of the subject and for our students to use science to improve their own lives and the lives of others.
