KEY STAGE 4
Our science program for Key Stage 4 (ages 14-16) includes topics such as environmental science, geology, astronomy, and medical science. The curriculum emphasizes developing an understanding of the scientific method, and how science is used in society. There is also a focus on developing skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, communication and teamwork.
1. Biology - This includes the study of cells, genetics, anatomy, physiology, ecology and evolution.
2. Chemistry - This includes the study of atoms, elements, compounds, chemical reactions, acids and bases, organic chemistry and the periodic table.
3. Physics - This includes the study of mechanics, energy, electricity, waves and radiation, magnetism and nuclear physics.
KEY STAGE 3
In Key Stage 3 we help students develop skills such as planning and carrying out investigations, using scientific apparatus and techniques, collecting and analyzing data, and evaluating evidence. You will also learn about the importance of scientific research and its impact on society.
Topics covered include:
1. Cells and organisms
2. Reproduction
3. Genetics and evolution
4. Chemical reactions
5. Elements, compounds, and mixtures
KEY STAGE 2
In Key Stage 2 science (ages 7-11), we help students with making observations, recording data and drawing conclusions. They are also expected to communicate their findings and scientific ideas using appropriate scientific language. Topics covered include:
1. Living things and their habitats
Recognition of common plants and animals
Classification of living things
Adaptation of living things to their environment
2. Animals, including humans
Structure and function of the human body
Lifecycles of animals
KEY STAGE 1
In Key Stage 1 we cover these topics and others:
Plants - Learning about the basic structure of plants, their life cycle, and their needs for growth.
Animals, including humans - Learning about the basic needs of animals and humans, comparing and contrasting different types of animals, and identifying and naming different body parts.
Forces and motion - Learning about push and pull forces, how they affect the motion of objects, and how we can change the speed and direction of an object.
Light and sound - Learning about the properties and behaviour of light and sound, and how they can be used in different ways.
