Science at Orchard Academy 

Through our Science lessons, we will be developing children’s ideas and ways of working which enable them to make sense of the world through investigation, as well as using and applying process skills.

Our teachers ensure that all children are exposed to high quality teaching and learning experiences, allowing them to explore their outdoor environment and their locality, thus maturing their scientific enquiry and investigative skills. These skills are embedded in each topic and the topics are revisited and expanded as the children journey through school.

To support children with increasing their scientific knowledge, we use 'Developing Experts'. All children have access to this website and teachers use it to support them in their lessons.
