Science vision and principles
Vision:
At Mission Grove, our vision is for Science to empower every child to be a curious, creative, and confident learner—one who aims high and believes they can make a difference in the world. We deliver a rich, inclusive science curriculum that sparks curiosity about how and why things happen, fosters creative thinking, and builds resilience through investigation and discovery. We aspire for all pupils to leave primary school as enthusiastic, questioning, and inspiring young scientists who see science as an integral part of everyday life and a gateway to future opportunities.
