Science

Science at Chiltern Hills Academy helps students develop a deeper understanding of the world through the study of Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Through practical investigation, scientific enquiry and critical thinking, students learn how scientific knowledge shapes our lives, drives innovation and helps us understand the natural and technological world around us.

Students are encouraged to be curious, ask questions and develop the skills needed to analyse evidence, solve problems and explain scientific ideas with confidence.
