Through science, students ‘explore 
the unknown, investigate universal 
phenomena, make predictions and 
solve problems.’ Science provides an 
‘empirical way of answering curious 
and important questions about the 
changing world.’
Through using a range of scientific 
inquiry practices, students learn to 
ask questions, make evidence-based 
decisions and communicate scientific 
understanding of the contemporary 
uses of science.
