It was Science Week in March, ten days spent celebrating Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
A number of our Year 11 triple science pupils told us about their love of the subject.
Sanaa said: “I think science helps build confidence with practical experiments and also independent learning. In practicals, there is always new equipment to use as well.
“I want to work in a pharmacy in the future.”
Sophia said: “I think science encourages team work as you work with partners, sometimes who you wouldn’t normally work with, but you find a way to work together.
“You learn new skills and it also builds confidence. I want to work in medicine.”
Mariyah said: “It teaches you how to write up practical experiments, so it’s useful for English as well. Science also teaches you how to follow instructions. I want to be a paramedic.”
Hurulaine, who wants to be a dermatologist, added: “Science is behind everything in the world. Science, new drugs and so on, can help you make a positive impact in the future.”
