1 The comprisons detiled in the document, compre the current 2000 Science Curriculum with the mster version of the 2014 Science Curriculum tht ws pulished y the DoE in Septemer Top 10 KS1 Science Curriculum Chnges At A Glnce 1) The "SC1 - Scientific Enquiry" section from the 2000 curriculum hs een renmed "Working Scientificlly" in the 2014 curriculum. 2) The "SC2 - Life Processes & Living Things" section from the 2000 curriculum hs een split out into "Animls including ", "Plnts" nd "Living things nd their hitts" in the new 2014 curriculum. 3) The "SC3 - Mterils nd their properties" section from the 2000 curriculum hs een split out into "Everydy " nd "Uses of everydy " in the new 2014 curriculum. 4) All the "SC4 - Physicl processes" LO's in the 2000 curriculum hve een moved to KS2. 5) A new topic re clled "Sesonl Chnges" hs een introduced in the new 2014 curriculum. 6) The 2000 curriculum "SC1 - Scientific enquiry" Lerning Ojective (LO) regrding "fir nd unfir tests" hs een moved to KS2. 7) The 2000 curriculum "SC3 - Mterils nd their properties" LO regrding heting nd cooling hs een moved to KS2. 8) In the new 2014 curriculum, "Working Scientificlly" explicitly sttes tht children should use simple equipment nd perform simple tests. This mkes the science more hnds-on for the children nd enles them to fully experience science for themselves rther thn y just videos nd demonstrtions. 9) The new curriculum recommends which yer individul LO's should e undertken. These re just ment s guide. You re free to tech ny of the LO's in either Yer 1 or 2 s you see fit ut they must e completed y the end of KS1. 10) The new 2014 curriculum is more focused towrds hitts, nimls, trees nd food chins thn the existing 2000 curriculum. Notes out this document: In this document I hve highlighted items in the "Current 2000 Curriculum" column RED wherey I elieve they re no longer present in the 2014 curriculum. In this document I hve highlighted items in the "New 2014 Curriculum" column RED wherey I elieve they re new dditions to the curriculum nd hve not een previously covered. Oviously, due to the nture of the 2014 curriculum nd the supplementry guidnce notes, some LO's re open to interprettion nd hence you my not lwys gree with my opinions.
