The school is extremely well-resourced, having a well-equipped Science laboratory. The emphasis in teaching is through practical investigation, children first learning the skills to use the apparatus and later designing their own investigations based on recognised scientific principles. In the Design Technology studio, pupils are taught to apply themselves to problem solving using such materials as wood, plastics and metals. Work is linked with other subjects, for example Science and Art, so that continuity and relevance to the outside world are stressed. A suite of Apple Macintosh computers serves as the teaching tool for timetabled lessons in Information Technology. Children learn skills in word processing, graphics, spreadsheet and database handling so that they may enhance their work across the curriculum in other subjects. For individual research projects, supervised internet access is available in the school library, which also houses the book reference section and many CD-ROMs.
