This course expands on many principles covered in GCSE Chemistry whilst also introducing new ones. The course is designed to enable students to: • Develop essential knowledge and understanding of different areas of the subject and how they relate to each other • Develop and demonstrate a deep appreciation of the skills, knowledge and understanding of scientific methods • Develop competence and confidence in a variety of practical, mathematical and problem-solving skills
GCSE Chemistry grade 6 or above, or 6-6 in Science, and at least grade 6 in Mathematics at GCSE. It is also recommended that students choose A Level Mathematics as a complementary subject alongside A Level Chemistry, but this is not compulsory.
All content is assessed in three exams at the end of the two-year course. There is no coursework element to the qualification. Practical skills are assessed separately and result in the practical endorsement being passed or failed. This does not affect the grade obtained or ability to pass the A Level.
