At Flanderwell we strongly believe that Science should help spark imagination, fuel curiosity and nurture inspired and confident young scientists. We know that children construct understanding of the world through experience. In order to make learning real children need to explore, ask questions, and assess their understanding. Our curriculum is based on a robust teaching and learning cycle that puts children and hands-on active learning at its heart and ensures progress for all.
We use Science Bug as part of our Science curriculum and this links with the New Primary Science Programme of Study.
