To provide an experimental foundation for the theoretical concepts introduced in the lectures. It is important that students have an opportunity to verify some of the ideas for themselves. To familiarize students with experimental apparatus, the scientific method, and methods of data analysis so that they will have some idea of the inductive process by which the ideas were originated. To teach how to make careful experimental observations and how to think about and draw conclusions from such data. To introduce the methods used for estimating and dealing with experimental uncertainties, including simple ideas in probability theory and the distinctions between random (statistical) and systematic "errors." This is essential in understanding what valid conclusions can be deduced from experimental data and that, properly obtained, these conclusions are valid, notwithstanding the uncertainty of the data.
Just a quick note to say a million thanks for the extraordinary effort everyone at NIS has put in to keep the children learning this term, not just for their intellectual and creative development but emotionally. Outside family, school is their main framework and the fact that you kept it functioning at all during a pandemic, but that you did so with such resourcefulness, care, flexibility and joy is mind boggling to me. It’s not just our NHS workers who are heroes, but our teachers!! Thank you for keeping our boys stimulated, inspired, and most importantly, happy during this tough tough time
A wonderful first school for both my children - friendly and caring staff with a relaxed and cheerful attitude to education that gives confidence and an enthusiasm to learn that continues today. Thank you NIS.
NIS nursery is an extremely supportive environment where children can learn, explore, be creative and develop as individuals with confidence. When you go to pick the kids up it is clear that they are extremely focused in whatever activity they are doing. I think also it encourages curious minds, which is great
