In our Shirley Schools, we believe that Science is a process of exploration, of finding out more about the world in which we live and of making sense of it in a logical coherent way. Science involves the development of skills, knowledge, concepts and attitudes. The Shirley Schools recognise that children live in an age of fast-moving science, and we believe that this area of learning is fundamental to exploring, understanding and influencing the world in which we live. We offer our children a wealth of experiences and develop ideas that encourage their natural curiosity and creativity, inspiring awe and wonder. Science in the Shirley Schools supports the development and advances in technology, and we learn how these lead to new scientific discoveries which shape how we live safe and healthy lives in our changing world. |
