Science
Coleshill Scientists
Investigation and enquiry are at the heart of science and our curriculum. Our units give children the opportunity to be practical and discover for themselves the wonders of the world of science.
We use the ARK Curriculum+ Scheme of work, which is based on the National Curriculum, to guide progression in knowledge and skills over time so that when our children leave us in Year 6, they are ready for the next step in their education at secondary school.

What is a broad and challenging science curriculum?
See the ARK Curriculum+ syllabus to see what children will master over the six years of Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
Each of our units have a core set of knowledge which we expect our children to learn and remember. This knowledge is taken forward to support new learning in subsequent years.
What topics will children learn about?

To summarise for children what new knowledge and skills a unit will offer, we have created our 'High 5s' - the basic strands of learning underpinning the unit.
