Chemistry is a vibrant and exciting subject. Chemistry is the connection between all sciences – from the making of new materials to understanding biological systems, and from the food we eat to the medicines which keep us healthy. We rely on chemicals every day of our lives and this course will help you understand and link different concepts and ideas together. The A Level course is a mixture of academic theory and application with supporting practical investigations. All A Level grades are based on final exams only in the summer of Year 13. However, a set of practical investigations are undertaken by all and is reported alongside the final A Level result. Course content: Module 1 – Development of practical skills Module 2 – Foundations in chemistry Module 3 – Periodic table and energy Module 4 – Core organic chemistry Module 5 – Physical chemistry and transition elements Module 6 – Organic chemistry and analysis A Level Chemistry can lead to employment in Education, Medicine, Forensic Science, Health and Safety, Manufacturing and Research and many other fields. It is also a requirement for medical and veterinary schools.
At least five grade 9–4 at GCSE or equivalent at L2 In addition the required entry criteria for each of the courses they wish to study in the Sixth Form, some of the courses offered may require a higher GCSE grade in a particular subject or subjects
At the end of the 2 years, pupils sit 3 exams: Paper 1 (2hr 15mins) assesses modules 1,2,3 and 5 and is weighted as 37%; Paper 2 (2hr 15mins) assesses 1,2,4 and 6 and is weighted as 37%; Paper 3 (1hr 30mins) covers all modules 1-6 and is weighted as 26%.
