STEAM
Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics. But it’s more than that. STEAM has grown to represent a unique approach to teaching and learning, one that centres around individual students’ learning styles and interests. This means STEAM education has something to offer every student.
In line with government strategy, we aim to provide the highest quality STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) education experience for all our pupils that nurtures curiosity, inquiry, problem-solving, creativity, ethical behaviour, confidence, and persistence, along with the excitement of collaborative innovation.
