Science Vision 

At Hujjat Primary School, our vision is to inspire every child to be a scientist who explores Allah’s creation with curiosity, integrity, and appreciation. We aim to nurture a sense of wonder about the world, encouraging pupils to learn both indoors and outdoors through exciting, thought-provoking experiences that help them observe, question, and understand how science shapes life today and in the future.

Through enquiry-based learning, children are encouraged to investigate, think critically, and apply their knowledge in real contexts, striving for excellence in their pursuit of truth. They learn to appreciate the natural world as part of Allah’s creation, using their understanding to support others and showing compassion and respect for all living things.
Our vision ensures that science develops not only knowledge but also character, equipping children with the skills, values, and confidence to serve as responsible citizens of the world.

How we learn Science

Science is made accessible to all pupils through a mix of practical work, first-hand experiences, special events and trips designed to inspire and engage learners. Teaching key skills such as making observations, predictions and evaluation of first hand observations are equally as important to knowledge and understanding. Our Science curriculum sparks curiosity from the Early Years to Year 6 by offering children opportunities to explore the world around us and fostering in them a sense of wonder around scientific learning!  

How we deliver the Curriculum 

We follow the Early Years and National Curriculums for Science, and our Science curriculum also links with other areas of a broad and balanced school curriculum. Each year group follows a curriculum map laying out what will be taught for the year. The priority is not only to teach children the scientific vocabulary and knowledge linked to the topics but also the skills that will allow them to work scientifically and apply these skills to any science topic. Children are encouraged to develop their analytical and critical thinking related to science with a focus towards building independence and problem-solving skills. We have our own progression documents which show how both knowledge and scientific skills are built upon throughout the children’s time in school.
