Our Intent

At Riverbridge, we aim to inspire a lifelong passion for scientific discovery and enquiry. Our intent is to cultivate curious minds that are eager to explore the natural world around them. By equipping children with the knowledge and skills they need to question, investigate and understand their environment, we will prepare them to be informed, responsible and innovative members of society. Beginning in Early Years, children will foster natural curiosity and enthusiasm for learning about the world around them through play-based and hands-on activities. In KS1, children will develop skills in scientific enquiry and investigation, enabling them to conduct simple experiments, make predictions, and record results. In KS2, children will build on foundational knowledge by exploring more complex scientific ideas and concepts. Through a progressive and engaging curriculum, children will revisit different aspects of Science across the key stages, building upon their skills and understanding each time.
