Kapow Primary’s Science scheme is an innovative and engaging resource that brings the subject to life for both teachers and pupils. With hands-on experiments, clear lesson plans, and interactive content, it nurtures curiosity and deepens understanding in an engaging way. The progressive curriculum supports teachers by saving planning time while ensuring high-quality, comprehensive coverage of key topics. Schools looking for a high-impact solution will find this scheme to be excellent. It’s a fantastic way to inspire the next generation of scientists!

For teaching staff, the scheme provides clear guidance with demonstration videos as well as Continued Professional Learning Development (CPLD), supporting the delivery of high-quality teaching and learning. In my role as Science Lead, the Subject Leader resources also support the development of good science leadership, including subject policy prompts and a deep dive toolkit. With its wealth of resources and impact on learning, Kapow Primary offers excellent value for schools.

The Kapow Science scheme of work is developed by experts in science education. The content is both innovative and engaging, with practical sessions that captivate students’ interest. Kapow connects learning to real-life examples and science-related careers, which not only motivates students but also helps to build their science capital. The resources provide comprehensive support for teachers, enhancing subject knowledge and addressing common misconceptions. As the scheme is delivered online, it is regularly updated, offering excellent value for money.

Kapow has videos to explain the background knowledge you need to know before you start. When we used the pre- and post-assessment quizzes (provided), children remembered more and were able to expand and embellish on the answers and on the knowledge organiser as a prompt.

The lessons give teachers the tools to teach foundation subjects effectively which has a positive impact on attainment.

We love Kapow! Love how detailed the scheme is, how we can use it for planning skill progression and writing medium-term plans. Gives staff confidence with the use of videos and background info. Helps you understand learning from previous year groups and where it goes next.
Hannah Allan, Chuter Ede Primary School
The Kapow schemes of work help to support and scaffold learning for the staff in our small rural village school. The mixed aged plans detail clear progression of knowledge and skills and the lessons themselves engage and challenge the children. Feedback from staff has been very positive. The support team are friendly, professional and always quick to respond and offer assistance. It’s a pleasure to work with them.
