In Year 12 you will be introduced to concepts of atoms and molecules, chemical bonding and the Periodic Table with emphasis on the elements and compounds of Groups 2 and 7 by one teacher. You will then continue by looking at chemical energetics, reaction rates and chemical equilibria. With your other teacher you will be introduced to the atomic structure and quantitative chemistry. In the spring term you will study organic chemistry via hydrocarbons, alcohols and their derivatives involving the study of modern instrumental techniques such as chromatography and spectroscopy.
Students must have 5 or more GCSE passes, including English and Mathematics, grade 5 or B to study A levels. For Sciences a GCSE pass at grade 6,6 or above in additional sciences or a grade 6 or above in two or more single sciences
Assessment is through final examination at the end of the course. There will be 3 exam papers each of 2 hours duration. Exams will comprise short-answer, multiple choice, extended answer and essay questions, critical analysis and questions on practical techniques. There will also be a teacher assessed practical.
