Science
Through our Science lessons we intend all students to progress in their understanding of the world they live in and the scientific implications of our actions.
- In all areas and for all ages we loan students revision guides and/or textbooks which we intend to be taken home to support revision and other homework tasks.
- We set by ability in Year 9 onwards and monitor progress so we can consider carefully any moves between sets.
- If a student will struggle to meet a deadline for a piece of set work we would always value communication from the student or parents to negotiate any extension required.
- Sixth Form students studying science courses will need to complete at least four hours per week of work outside of lessons to be able to succeed on each course.
- Triple science GCSE is taught with an additional weekly “twilight lesson” from 3pm to 5pm. Experience shows us it is best suited to the most able scientists who have a love of hard work!
- Between years 7-11 all students will study equal amounts of Biology, Chemistry and Physics. The first opportunity to specialise in a single science will be in the Sixth Form.
