Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) at Ryders Hayes

VISION:
We believe every pupil is a potential scientist, engineer, technologist and mathematician!

PRINCIPLES:
We:
EXPLORE: Create awe and wonder about the world around us and beyond.
PLAY: Allow children to investigate their own questions with practical resources.
DEVELOP: Give opportunities for children to explain and share their ideas and findings.
LINK: Inspire and support every single child to find out more.

So that all children are:
Resourceful and engaged in purposeful play using key vocabulary and asking questions.
Resilient when things go wrong (as they do!).
Reciprocal and can share their ideas by listening and explaining.
Reflective and use their knowledge and skills to make links with other areas.

AWE: (and what else?)
Children grow up understanding what STEM means; have the skills they need to succeed in STEM subjects in further and higher education; develop important life-skills in relation to the world they live; and have high aspirations for their future careers.
