Developing Experts

Our scheme of work we use for Science is Developing Experts. It is used from Early Years through to Year 6 and embeds scientific skills and vocabulary into each lesson.

It engages our children through interactive questioning and quizzes and helps us to recap our previous learning. Our children learn 5 new rocket words in each lesson which is practiced through fun quizzes or songs. Developing Experts also includes videos on how real careers link to our Science learning.
