Rather than automatically simplifying everything for pupils who need additional support, we’re trying to identify which parts of the task genuinely require adaptation. The scientific thinking should remain challenging…   Read more»

I’d rather identify a small number of shared principles than create another document that departments have to complete. I’ll take this to the next curriculum meeting and see whether we can map the existing curriculum against a few…   Read more»

One area we’re considering is whether pupils experience enough progression in the way they apply scientific knowledge to unfamiliar problems. At…   Read more»

We’ve found that pupils can sometimes follow a procedure but struggle to explain what they’ve done afterwards because they don’t have secure command of the relevant vocabulary. There may be an opportunity to…   Read more»
