Science

At Millbrook we are committed to ensuring the effective delivery of a Science curriculum as one of the three core subjects that all pupils need. To ensure high quality and standards of teaching and learning in science Millbrook has subscribed to the SNAP Science scheme of work created by Collins Education and given the green tick by the Association of Science Education. Where/When ever possible Science is linked by teachers at Millbrook to their other teaching in Philosophy, Outdoor Learning as well as the other Core and foundation subjects.

A high-quality science education provides the foundations for understanding the world through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics. Science has changed our lives and is vital to the world’s future prosperity, and all pupils should be taught essential aspects of the knowledge, methods, processes and uses of science. Through building up a body of key foundational knowledge and concepts, pupils should be encouraged to recognise the power of rational explanation and develop a sense of excitement and curiosity about natural phenomena. They should be encouraged to understand how science can be used to explain what is occurring, predict how things will behave, and analyse causes.
