We have recently (2024) achieved the nationally recognised Primary Science Quality Mark (PSQM), raising the standard of science education across the school and enthusing the future generation of scientists. 

Vision of science:

Fitzmaurice Principles of Science:

We believe that children are the future of science and that they must be inspired, and taught the knowledge and skills that will start their scientific journey in education.

We ensure that the scientific learning starts with the child and their experiences. Our lessons are purposeful, engaging and investigative while ensuring the secure retention of knowledge and learning the skills, mindset and curiosity needed to be a scientist.

Children will know that science is everywhere around them and an important part of their everyday lives.

We aim for every child to feel that science is for them.
