Students will be expected to demonstrate and apply the knowledge, understanding and skills described in the following content: 1. Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table 2. Bonding and Structure 3. Redox I and II 4. Inorganic Chemistry and the Periodic Table 5. Formulae, Equations and Amounts of Substance 6. Organic Chemistry I, II and III 7. Modern Analytical Techniques 8. Energetics I and II 9. Kinetics I and II 10. Equilibrium I and II 11. Acid Base Equilibria 12. Transition Metals 13. Modern Analytical Techniques II. Students taking A level Chemistry have gone on to follow different routes. Last year our students went on to do Medicine, Biomedical Engineering, Accounting and Finance, Natural Sciences and Optometry.
Candidates must have both Maths and English Language or English Literature GCSE at Grade 5 or above, and also fulfil the entry criteria for their chosen subject courses: GCSE Chemistry and one other science (GCSE Biology or GCSE Physics) Grade 6 or above, plus Grade 5 or above in the third science, OR GCSE Combined Science Grade 6:6 or above. GCSE Mathematics and GCSE English Language or GCSE English Literature Grade 5 or above.
Internal Assessment Assessments at the end of each unit Weekly homework Assessment of practical skills during practical work Mock exams in Y12 and Y13 Students are expected to carry out the sixteen core practical experiments that are identified in the topics. The Practical Endorsement is separate to the A level grade and, if awarded, will be reported as a ‘Pass’ on A level certificates for students who achieve it. External Assessment Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Chemistry consists of three externally examined papers. The third paper will include synoptic questions that may draw on two or more different topics and questions on conceptual and theoretical understanding of experimental methods. Paper 1 – Advanced Inorganic and Physical Chemistry Topics 1-5, Topic 8, Topics 10-15 90 marks, 1h and 45 min, 30% Paper 2 – Advanced Organic and Physical Chemistry Topics 2-3 Topics 5-7, Topic 9, Topics 16-19 90 marks, 1h and 45 min, 30% Paper 3 – General and Practical Principles in Chemistry Topics 1-19 120 marks, 2h and 30 min, 40%
