Science
At Long Ditton St Mary’s, our vision for science is for all children to become scientifically literate through our collaborative and investigative approach, which is based on a balance of skills and knowledge, in turn developing children’s curiosity and excitement for the subject.
Our vision is supported by our science principles which we use to help guide our teaching and learning.
