Science Award success for St. Joseph's!
Thu 28 Sep 2023We've achieved another award! We are delighted to have achieved the Primary Science Quality Mark. A special congratulations and well done to Miss Maher, our school Science leader.
Helen Sizer, PSQM Co-Director said: ‘By enabling effective science leadership, PSQM is powering the potential of all children to see the relevance and importance of science in their lives, now and in the future. Schools that have achieved a Primary Science Quality Mark have demonstrated a significant commitment to science leadership, teaching and learning and the profile and quality of science in each accredited school is very high. Science subject leaders, their colleagues, headteachers, children, parents and governors should be very proud.”
