# Science

In conjunction with the 2014 National curriculum we aim to offer a high-quality science education, which provides the foundations for understanding the world through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics.

Through teaching science at Rodbourne Cheney we aim to:

- Develop scientific knowledge and conceptual understanding through the specific disciplines of biology, chemistry and physics
- Develop understanding of the nature, processes and methods of science through different types of science enquiries that help them to answer scientific questions about the world around them
- Are equipped with the scientific knowledge required to understand the uses and implications of science, today and for the future.
