Unit Summary

Our Year 5 Forces with Rolls Royce unit explores many different types of forces, enabling learners to have a wider understanding of the different natural and applied forces in existence. This unit is best taught with practical examples, where children are given the opportunity to test applied forces for themselves, but also study the theory behind natural forces. Once the children have understood these concepts, they can consider the impact that such forces have in industry and on our everyday lives. There are 7 lessons in this unit. If however, you wish to shorten the block to 6 lessons because lessons 5 and 6 cover the concept of drag, using one lesson on either air or water resistance.

Developing Experts works closely with industry with the goal of ensuring that career choice is no longer left to chance, we are committed to connecting talent to local opportunity. The Gatsby Benchmarks, therefore, permeate our curriculum and careers library. This unit has been created with the support of Rolls Royce. When creating these resources we were delighted to film with their staff on location at Jubilee House in Derby. Rolls Royce is committed to supporting young people to achieve their potential. You can find out about the careers and job vacancies on the Rolls Royce careers website.
