What the pupils say……
Learners say ‘it’s interesting and the teachers are good’
After STEM trips more learners say they want to do science in college and as a job
Learners say they enjoy the variety of topics and experiments they do
Learners have reported they feel safe in the classrooms and department
Five ways to support your child:
- Ensure they complete Educake homework set each week.
- Ensure they have all the necessary school equipment each lesson.
- Ensure they attend as many days of school as possible.
- Encourage attendance at enrichment and intervention.
- Provide them with Science CGP revision books for KS3 &4.
