Science – St Matthew's Catholic Primary School

Science at St Matthew’s Primary School

At St Matthew’s, science in primary school is designed to spark curiosity and a sense of wonder about the world around us. Pupils engage in hands-on, practical learning to engage children in more abstract and difficult concepts. In lessons, we encourage children to ask questions, test ideas and draw conclusions, helping them develop strong scientific knowledge as well as critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

St Matthew’s were awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark (Outreach) 2021-2025. We are currently reviewing our science award for 2026.
