About Primary Science tutoring in Ireland
Science at primary level sits inside SESE - Social, Environmental and Scientific Education - alongside History and Geography. It covers living things, materials, energy and forces, and environmental awareness, and it is taught through investigation rather than as a body of facts to be learned.
The most valuable thing primary science teaches is method: asking a question, predicting an answer, changing one thing at a time and recording what happened. Children who leave primary school able to design a fair test find Junior Cycle Science markedly easier, because that is exactly what its Classroom-Based Assessments reward.
Sessions use demonstrations, simulations and simple activities your child can run at home with everyday materials, then talk through what happened and why - which is where the actual learning sits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where does Science sit in the primary curriculum?+
Within SESE - Social, Environmental and Scientific Education - alongside History and Geography. It is taught through investigation rather than as facts to memorise.
Do you do experiments online?+
We use demonstrations, simulations and simple activities your child can do at home with everyday materials, and talk through what happened.
Does it prepare for secondary science?+
It builds the questioning and fair-testing habits Junior Cycle Science assumes, which is the most useful thing primary science can do.
Can science really be taught online?+
Yes, and often better one-to-one. We use demonstrations and simple home activities, and because a tutor is watching only your child they can ask the follow-up question that turns an observation into understanding.
What is a "fair test"?+
An investigation where only one thing is changed at a time, so you can be confident about what caused the result. It is the single most transferable idea in primary science and it runs all the way to Leaving Cert practicals.
Does this help with SESE overall?+
Yes - the inquiry skills are shared with History and Geography, which sit in the same curriculum area.
