Science

The teaching of Science at Barfield is designed to give boys and girls confidence in understanding the world around them. It hopes to give them the skills and knowledge to explore and explain what is around them, whether biological, chemical or physical.

While the topics taught follow National Curriculum and Common Entrance Syllabus there should be a constant message of awe and wonder in the topics they cover, with stimulating teaching and learning to inspire and motivate the children in the subject.
