Exceptional Primary Science Teaching
High-quality science teaching is essential for developing pupils who think critically, question confidently, and understand the world around them. Exceptional Primary Science Teaching equips educators with the knowledge and strategies to build a coherent, ambitious, and engaging science curriculum that aligns with National Curriculum expectations and Ofsted priorities. Participants explore effective lesson design, progression mapping, practical investigation, and approaches that make scientific concepts accessible and inspiring. This INSET supports science leads and classroom practitioners to strengthen curriculum intent, improve teaching quality, and raise outcomes across primary science.
Primary Science Investigation & Scientific Enquiry
Strong scientific enquiry skills are the foundation of meaningful learning and a key driver of curiosity in the primary classroom. Primary Science Investigation & Scientific Enquiry provides teachers with the tools to embed high-quality investigation, reasoning, and evidence-based thinking throughout KS1 and KS2. Participants learn to plan purposeful enquiries, model scientific processes, develop pupil questioning, and assess progression with confidence. This INSET empowers science leads and teachers to deliver enquiry-rich lessons that deepen understanding, promote independence, and elevate scientific thinking across the curriculum.
Challenging able pupils in Science
Stretching the most able pupils in science is vital for nurturing high attainment, deep conceptual understanding, and a culture of intellectual challenge. Challenging Able Pupils in Science equips teachers with research-informed strategies that extend higher-order thinking, enhance reasoning, and provide meaningful challenge within everyday lessons. Participants explore effective differentiation, mastery tasks, open-ended investigations, and assessment approaches that identify and accelerate advanced learners. This INSET supports science leads and teachers to raise expectations, enrich learning experiences, and ensure that able pupils make exceptional progress in science.
