Super Scientists

Grow Morden Mount scientists  who will develop an understanding of natural phenomena through the disciplines of chemistry, physics and biology. Demonstrate curiosity to find explanations behind everyday scientific processes, and use enquiry skills, built upon year by year, to conduct their own investigations into these. Apply their knowledge to understand and evaluate findings. 

A Morden Mount scientist will be equipped with the relevant vocabulary to use when asking and answering scientific questions and begin to appreciate the way science affects our lives, both now and in the future on a personal, national and global level.
