• Curriculum Aims

  • ​The Science (S1-3) curriculum provides science-related learning experiences that develop students’ interest in science and to lay a foundation for their studies of various science curricula at the senior secondary level. It also focuses on the development of scientific literacy for living in and contributing towards a scientific and technological world.

  • The aims of Science are to enable students to:

    • develop curiosity and interest in science;

    • acquire fundamental scientific knowledge and skills, and appreciate the relationship between science and other disciplines;

    • develop the ability to make scientific investigation and solve problems;

    • use the language of science to communicate science-related ideas;

    • develop a basic understanding of the nature of science;

    • develop the ability to integrate and apply scientific knowledge and skills with other related disciplines;

    • recognise the social, ethical, economic, environmental and technological implications of science, and develop an attitude of responsible citizenship and a commitment to promote personal and community health;
