--- title: "Science" url: "https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/science" school: "Dove Bank Primary School" --- # Science ## Science At Dove Bank Primary School, we believe that science develops not only their understanding of the world around us, but problem solving, logic and reasoning skills. Our children are given opportunities to develop their resilience by working through problems to find answers, sometimes over a period of time. They also become more **resilient** by evaluating and repeating tests to ensure that results are accurate. We are **aspirational** for our children through promoting technical vocabulary and the understanding of scientific concepts, children are also encouraged to ask their own questions and investigate ideas they themselves initiate. Underpinning all our learning, we encourage our children to show **kindness**, respect, consideration and understanding when learning in science lessons. ### Science Documents Climate Change and Sustainability Action Plan 264 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/files/documents/Dove_Bank_sustainability_action_plan_2025-6_final(1).docx) Teaching Science at Dove Bank 166 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/files/documents/Teaching_Science_at_Dove_Bank.pdf) ### ### Related News ![Image of We've been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/partners/PSQM_2025.jpg) 5 November 2025 ### [We've been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/news/2025-11-05-we-ve-been-awarded-the-primary-science-quality-mark) ![Image of We've been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/imagecache/720x440c/partners/PSQM_2025.jpg) 5 November 2025 ### [We've been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/news/2025-11-05-we-ve-been-awarded-the-primary-science-quality-mark) [View All News](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/news/tag/science%252Cprimary-science-quality-mark) ### Our Curriculum - [Our Curriculum Plan](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/our-curriculum) - [Early Years](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/early-years) - [Maths](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/maths) - [English](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/english) - [Science](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/science) - [PE and Sport](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/pe-sport) - [Spanish](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/spanish) - [PSHE and RSE](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/pshe-rse) - [History](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/history) - [Geography](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/geography) - [Music](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/music) - [Art & Design](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/art-design) - [Design & Technology](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/design-technology) - [Computing](https://dovebank.staffs.sch.uk/design-technology/computing) [![](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/images/logo/Dovebank_Logo_white_out.png)](https://tlptrust.com/) **Dove Bank Primary School** Rutland Road Kidsgrove ST7 4AP Tel: 01782 898015 Email: office@dovebank.staffs.sch.uk Headteacher – Sally Dakin SEND Coordinator - Greer Amison Safeguarding Lead - Sally Dakin ![The Learning Partnership](https://files.schudio.com/dove-bank-primary-school/images/logo/TLP_logo_for_footer.png) The Learning Partnership is a charitable company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales.
