Key Threads - Science
As a school, we assess the foundation curriculum through Key Threads. The Key Threads are derived from the National Curriculum objectives for each year group. These ensure that the children have a deeper knowledge and understanding which remains embedded in their long term memory and is built upon as the children progress through our school.
​
Here you will find our Key Threads in Science for each year group.

Progression in Scientific Enquiry
June 2023 - Year 2 have been learning about the importance of good hygiene and handwashing in Science recently.

We learned that germs can easily spread to any surface that we touch with our hands.
