Why science is for me animation

Why is science a core subject? It is easy to see why everyone needs to study maths and English but the same cannot always be said of science.

This short animation, and accompanying poster, is a tool teachers can use to help demonstrate that science enables students to gain a broad range of transferable skills useful in many careers.

The study of science is not just for those who want a scientific career, but it is relevant to everyone for their future decision making and information processing. Science is a way of thinking, a way of analysing facts and acting upon this analysis; science isn’t about knowing the answers, it’s about knowing what questions to ask.
