It has been a busy and engaging week in Science, with both our IGCSE and KS3 students taking part in a range of practical and interactive learning experiences. In IGCSE Science , students have been developing their practical skills by creating onion cell specimen slides to view under the microscope. This hands-on activity allowed them to observe real cells and identify key sub-cellular structures , helping to bring their learning to life. Students also worked on their unders
