Science is really important at Haydon Abbey School and Pre-School.

We are currently working towards gaining a PSQM science award.

At Haydon Abbey, we know Science is going well when:-

Teachers have good subject knowledge

Children are curious and ask questions

Learning is child led with opportunities for children to lead their own experiments

Lessons are practical

Lessons are well resourced

Children are engaged and motivated

Lessons are well planned

Assessment informs (questions, next steps)

Children’s learning is recorded in a variety of ways

WHAT THE CHILDREN AT HAYDON ABBEY HAVE TO SAY ABOUT SCIENCE:

“You learn brand new stuff.”

“You get to do experiments that are cool!”

“My favourite thing about science is when you start and it gets going and you get really into it.”

“I like science because you get to do experiments on things and then predict and you don’t know what is going to happen.”
