Chemistry

Assessment

There will be three 2 hour papers to sit at the end of the two year course. Paper 1 - Physical and Inorganic Chemistry Paper 2 - Physical and Organic Chemistry Paper 3 - Synoptic Paper with practical and multiple choice questions A separate endorsement of practical skills will be taken alongside the full A-level. Assessment is by teachers, based on direct observation of students’ competency in a range of skills that are not assessable in written exams. We will be developing the student’s practical skills in Physics during the course and they will need to complete the twelve compulsory experiments set by the exam board during the two year course. This does not contribute to the A-level award.
