Mosslands has been awarded the prestigious Silver Science Mark Award, from STEM learning in recognition of its inspiring Science department and the work it does.

The Science Mark was created by STEM Learning to recognise and celebrate best practice in science departments across the UK. Schools and colleges receive the Science Mark when they can show that they are delivering inspiring lessons for students and demonstrate their department’s commitment to high-quality science education.

Head of Science Katie Weston said ‘We are thrilled to be recognised by STEM learning and to be receiving this award, it underlines our efforts to fulfil the school goals of care, challenge and commitment from both staff and students.

The award recognises the work that Mosslands School does within the community to promote Science education and celebrates the fact, that at Mosslands a higher than national average of pupils go on to successfully study STEM subjects post 16 and beyond.

Adam Little, Professional Development Leader at STEM Learning, said:

“We are delighted to congratulate The Mosslands School on receiving the Silver Science Mark. Being awarded Science Mark is such a prestigious achievement because the assessment process is so rigorous, ensuring the programme is a true hallmark of quality science teaching. Each school and college who receives Science Mark has demonstrated a real and ongoing commitment to excellent science education in their school. Mosslands is a great example of this.”
