We have enjoyed working under the banner of Science Week and pupils across the year groups have conducted Pattern Seeking Enquiries, which is research where the variables cannot all be controlled but causal relationships can be explored. Some examples might include ‘what is the relationship between foot height and actual height?’, or ‘Can children with long legs run faster?’
To add a further level of enquiry, groups split into boys and girls and completed a further comparison of their findings. Pupils also gave feedback on their experience via a Pupil Voice forum, designed to question why a there is a greater percentage of boys than girls currently working at greater depth in the subject. The results were interesting and thought-provoking.
