We are delighted to say that we have been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark. So far, since its national launch in 2010, over 4000 schools across the UK have achieved a prestigious Primary Science Quality Mark. Congratulations to the HMS team who have worked very hard to achieve this award and special thanks to Ms Carruthers for her huge effort and commitment in driving this forward last year.
The Primary School Quality Mark programme ensures effective leadership of science, enables schools to work together to share good practice and is supported by professional development led by local experts. It encourages teacher autonomy and innovation while at the same time offering a clear framework for development in science subject leadership, teaching and learning. Schools that achieve PSQM demonstrate commitment and expertise in science leadership, teaching and learning.
