The Science curriculum at Co-op Academy Belle Vue aims to:

• Ensure knowledge is structured to facilitate a coherent sequence of learning. This intentional design ensures that students progressively acquire substantive and procedural knowledge, establishing robust connections between prior and future learning stages. At each stage, students are equipped for their subsequent educational endeavours.

• Ensure knowledge  core scientific knowledge is deliberately interleaved across subjects and topics. This deliberate approach enhances memory retention, enabling students to retain and apply their acquired knowledge over the long term, effectively preparing them for their future pursuits.
