STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of educating pupils in the four specific disciplines.
Our teaching of STEM empowers every student to use their creativity and to develop their critical thinking skills through more practical, hands-on activities that require adaptive thinking.
We support and challenge our students to apply their learning in different contexts and to make connections between the classroom and the world around them.
Four specific disciplines
Science
Incorporating Chemistry, Biology, and Physics, we encourage students to examine the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world, through observation and experimentation.
Technology
Our STEM program incorporates collaborative, active learning activities that include topics such as computer programming.
Engineering
Hands on experience to understand materials and the impact it has on the performance of the projects.
Mathematics
We focus on everything from introductory algebra to geometrical constructions and challenge students to delve into mathematics as a concept that can be applied to the world rather than just academic problem solving.
Passion for STEM
Our aim is to ignite an interest in all our students through a combination of core curriculum and co-curricular activities.
Once students enter Year 7, they experience STEM at an entirely different level. We now offer Engineering in place of the more traditional Design Technology lessons.
