What the school offers its staff
Science at Stationers’ Crown Woods Academy:The Science curriculum at SCWA is to ensure that all pupils in Science have a strong knowledge and understanding of the role and importance of Science in the modern world,while developing scientific thinking, contextual application and sophistication in scientific communication. Our desire as a team is for our curriculum tofoster a desire for pupils to take Science beyond school and go into STEM based careers.
Our curriculum has been designed as a course of study where our students see the same big ideas throughout their time at SCWA, where each encounter with these big ideas increases in complexity and reinforces previous learning.
We also see that Science is a logical interconnected web of knowledge, because each part of science is connected to every other part of Science, it can be closely linked like cells and evolution, or through shared foundations like atoms, ions, electrolysis and calculating the charge passing through the electrolysis circuit. So our curriculumistaught as a subject as a whole in years 7-11 before pupils can specialise when studying KS5 subjects.
