Moorhouse Academy Rockets to Success with Prestigious National Science Award
We are absolutely thrilled to announce that we have been awarded the Primary Science Quality Mark (PSQM)!
This prestigious national accreditation celebrates our deep commitment to providing exceptional science education and leadership across the school.
Moorhouse Academy is one of just 310 schools to achieve this recognised status this month, validating our efforts to develop excellence in curriculum design, teaching, and learning.
A Mark of Excellence
The PSQM, led by the University of Hertfordshire, is much more than a simple certificate; it is a testament to the rigor and quality of our science program. The accreditation recognises that Moorhouse Academy demonstrates effective science leadership and practices that are positively impacting children’s curiosity and knowledge.
The program itself is a comprehensive, year-long professional development journey. It equipped our science subject leaders with the necessary knowledge and support to continually raise the profile of science and promote a culture of continuous improvement across all year groups.
Globally, the PSQM program has set over one million children on a path toward exciting possibilities by giving them a strong, quality foundation in primary science. We are proud that our students are now part of this growing, successful community.
Collective Success
Helen Sizer, PSQM Director, praised the school’s dedication and collective effort in achieving the award.
“By achieving The Primary Science Quality Mark, a school has shown commitment to raising the profile and quality of science education through the development of effective science leadership, visionary curriculum design and excellent teaching practice which is positively impacting on children’s learning across the school.”
“Such success is only possible through the collective effort of the whole school community, and all those involved should be incredibly proud of this achievement and the positive difference this is making to children’s learning and understanding of the world around them.”
Moorhouse Academy is excited to continue building on this success, ensuring that our young learners are equipped with the skills and passion needed to explore the world around them.
