Key Stage 4 Science

British Science Week The week of 4th March, saw Mr Grainey delivering British Science Week assemblies to all year groups. This year’s theme was time and it was well spent, engaging in informative, interesting and thought-provoking discussions around how to control the rate at which you age. Please ask your child about how to age at the rate you wish for.

Those who choose not to pursue this option, are not limited as to college courses, science, medical, engineering etc. careers in the future. They too will study all three sciences, just ‘less broad’ and have their results combined together, to come out with two GCSEs in science. Science Show Fellow science enthusiasts! The Royal Institution brought a captivating world of science right to our doorstep on Friday 22nd March, with an explosive and educational show titled, “Explosive Food.” Students & their families embarked on a thrilling journey into the realm of food and its often surprising and explosive nature.
