Science Department

The Science Department at VGGS is comprised of very qualified, innovative and experienced staff. Learning sciences in the school is fun since the teachers incorporate practical approaches to make learning easy and enjoyable. Teaching also involves the use of technology which goes a long way to demystify most of the abstract concepts in science.
The department has eight teachers and a qualified laboratory technician. It has five well-equipped laboratories to cater for the three sciences offered in the school: Chemistry, Biology and Physics. With the establishment of the JSS in the school early this year, one of the laboratories is specifically designed to suit the Junior Secondary School learners.
The laboratories are fitted with WIFI and permanently installed with projectors for ICT integration in teaching and learning. Moreover, students are issued with textbooks, revision books and past papers for easier learning and revision. Teachers in the department are devoted to coming up with interesting and innovative methods of content delivery in line with the SMASSE-recommended ASEI approach to teaching and learning.
The students are constantly exposed to learning opportunities outside the school by attending contests, symposia, and the Science and Technology Fair where they have been competing favourably.
We strive to remain competitive not only in the county but also nationally. This is in line with the school's mission of achieving high standards of teaching and learning with a special focus on Science and Technology.
