Wellspring Academy is blessed to have three modern well-equipped and well-stocked science labs for the different subject areas including, the Physics lab, the Chemistry lab and the Biology lab. With Cambridge specifications for space in examinations, each of these labs can accommodate 23 students.
The Biology and Chemistry labs underwent a major upgrade in December 2017, adding new safety features like a fume chamber for harmful chemicals and washing area for accidental chemical spillage or fires. Additionally, the gas tanks for experiments that need heating are located outside the labs in a secure holding.
These labs form an integral part for Checkpoint science, practical exposure for IGCSE, and impart advanced practical skills for AS and A levels. The students love their practical lessons and are involved in the cleaning up processes after each lesson, further exposing them to the careful handling and management of lab materials and equipment.
