The chemical industry is the number one export earner among the manufacturing industries in this country and the subject is also a requirement for some higher education courses. Module 1 Development of Practical Skills in Chemistry 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 Chemistry is a practical subject and laboratory techniques form an important part of the course, as well as the teaching of theoretical concepts. It is often found to be helpful, though not essential, for students to take one other science A-level (Biology or Physics) with Chemistry, and good confidence with Mathematics is essential for quantitative work, especially in Year 13 material. Opportunities for people with a qualification in Chemistry have never been better. There will be many openings in industry, commerce, and public services for chemists, biochemists, metallurgists, materials scientists, etc., of A-level to higher degree standard. It is a valuable support for many others, such as agriculture, biology, engineering, geology, medicine, veterinary science, and physiotherapy.
Two GCSE subjects at Grade 6 and four GCSE subjects at Grade 5 grades. Grade 6-6 in GCSE Combined Science or a Grade 6 in Triple Chemistry GCSE and a Grade 6 in Mathematics GCSE.
Unit 1 Periodic Table, Elements & Physical Chemistry - assesses content from modules 1-3 & 5 - 2 hour 15 minute written paper worth 37% of A-level. Unit 2 Synthesis & Analytical Techniques - assesses content from modules 1, 2, 4 & 6 - 2 hour 15 minute written paper worth 37% of A-level. Unit 3 Unified Chemistry - assesses content from all modules (1 to 6) - 1 hour 30 minute written paper worth 26% of A-level. Unit 4 Practical Endorsement in Chemistry.
