At Yealmpton Primary School, we value Science as a core subject and aim to create enriching opportunities for our children to become curious and experienced Scientists. 

Children develop scientifc knowledge and conceptual understanding through engaging activities and investigations, which excite their natural curiosity. We aim to develop a long-lasting interest in Biology, Physics and Chemistry.

At Yealmpton, we are very fortunate to be able to offer the children oportunities to make good use of the school grounds to learn first-hand about the natural world and the scientific processes that are all around us! Science at Yealmpton is enhanced by our outdoor learning experiences and by visitors, such as the Explorerdome and Energy Edd. Our children have enjoyed school trips to Plymouth Aquarium, Lyneham Farm and The Eden Project to enhance our learning.
