Sciences

Throughout our work we encourage students to explore and think about the world that they live in and how Science affects their everyday lives.

From S1-S3, pupils follow a broad general science education. This involves all students undertaking an integrated science course exploring topical issues such as global warming, pollution, genetic engineering, forensic science, space exploration, telecommunications, and the energy crisis.

Our aims are to raise pupils' awareness and understanding of how science plays a vitally important role in every aspect of our lives and to develop a lifelong interest in the sciences.

From S4-S6 pupils specialise in their chosen Science(s) as part of the suite of National Qualifications. Pupils experience a range of activities, both theoretical and practical and are well supported by the faculty staff. Pupils are encouraged to use the resources issued in class and those available through links on the school website to consolidate their learning at home.
