Key Stage 2
Meaning
A circuit diagram is a simple diagram using circuit symbols that are the same everywhere in the world.
About Circuit Diagrams
- Circuit diagrams are drawn so that anyone in the world can build the same circuit.
- Circuit diagrams use symbols instead of drawings because components might look different in different places.

Key Stage 3
Meaning
A circuit diagram is a simple diagram used to show how a circuit is put together.
About Circuit Diagrams
- Circuit diagrams are drawn so that anyone in the world can build the same circuit.
- Circuit diagrams use symbols instead of drawings because components might look different in different places.
