Vision
Our vision ‘Life in all its fullness’ is taken from the book of John and these words were spoken by Jesus. At St Aidan's, every pupil is valued and has a rightful place within our community. We recognise that every individual is unique and has different skills, talents and abilities. We are committed to ensuring that every individual has the opportunity to thrive in their own distinctive way. Our aim is to ensure that all members of our school community achieve their full God given potential academically, socially, personally and spiritually. This is what Jesus wanted: for us to live life to the full.
Science
Curriculum Overview
Science Vision
At St Aidan’s Academy we are committed to providing a stimulating, engaging and intellectually challenging learning environment. This enables all our pupils to develop scientific consciousness, from the subatomic to the intergalactic.
We aim to give all pupils a strong understanding of the world around them whilst acquiring specific skills and knowledge to help them to think scientifically. They will gain an understanding of scientific processes and an understanding of the uses and implications of Science, today and for the future.
At St Aidan’s, scientific enquiry skills are embedded in each topic the pupils study and these topics are revisited and developed throughout their time at school. This model allows pupils to build upon their prior knowledge and increases their enthusiasm for the topics whilst embedding this procedural knowledge into the long-term memory.
