We aim to give all children a strong understanding of the world around them whilst acquiring specific skills and knowledge to help them to think scientifically, to gain an understanding of scientific processes and also an understanding of the uses and implications of Science, today and for the future.

Science at Wellsprings is focused around talk – we want every child to be able to engage actively in lessons and give great value to verbal responses whether it be during play, whole class lessons or paired and group work.

Our Science Lead, annually organises a Science/STEM week to raise the profile of Science skills across the school. She also leads staff in monitoring the work in books, analysing the work undertaken by pupils across the school.

Please visit our Youtube account at Wellsprings School TV to see some lovely videos about our STEM week with some interesting STEM challenges!

Here are our Science STEM week competition entries for November 2023- the aim was to take a photo/selfie doing Science.
