Enabling our pupils to understand the world around them, explain what is occurring, predict how
things will behave and analyse causes.

 

At Templars Academy, our science curriculum is designed to inspire curiosity and develop a deep understanding of the natural world through the disciplines of biology, chemistry, and physics. We aim to equip children with essential scientific knowledge, skills, and vocabulary, enabling them to explain phenomena, predict outcomes, and engage in meaningful scientific enquiry.

Our curriculum:

• Builds progressively on key scientific knowledge and concepts, ensuring children develop a secure understanding at each stage.
• Integrates ‘working scientifically’ skills throughout, encouraging children to observe, classify, investigate, and analyse data using a variety of scientific methods.
• Emphasises the importance of spoken language to help children articulate scientific ideas clearly and confidently.
• Provides ample opportunities for practical, hands-on activities that connect theory with real-world applications.
• Ensures continuity from early years through Key Stage 2, allowing children to build connected and lasting scientific knowledge.
• Supports children to understand the relevance of science in everyday life and its impact on future innovation and society.

We are committed to providing a high-quality science education that fosters excitement, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning about the world around us.
