Broxburn Academy Science Department

Welcome to the Science Department!

Science is all about exploring the world around us, asking big questions, and finding out how things work – from the tiniest particles to the vastness of space. Our lessons are designed to challenge your thinking while making learning fun and memorable.

We believe that every student has the potential to achieve great things. That’s why we set high expectations, encourage ambition, and support you every step of the way. We’ll help you develop key skills like problem-solving, resilience, and independence – qualities that will serve you well in science, school, and life beyond the classroom.

Whether you're mixing chemicals, building circuits, or debating the ethics of genetic engineering, you'll be developing your curiosity, confidence, and creativity. With trips, clubs, competitions, and exciting experiments, there’s always something new to explore in science.

So get ready to investigate, experiment, and learn!
