Course summary

This stimulating and exciting course follows on from the AQA Sciences that many students study at GCSE. Our objective is to ensure that learning is enjoyable and enhances your enthusiasm for this fascinating subject. Topics studied include atomic structure, equations, bonding, the periodic table, energetics, equilibria, and some organic chemistry. We incorporate a good deal of practical work into the course; which fits in well with the new A Level changes, which replace ISA exams with classroom practicals. There is a big emphasis on problem-solving, both mathematical and written word. You will learn to use laboratory equipment skillfully and safely to carry out chemical investigations. You will develop your ability to record, present and analyze the data you collect according to international scientific standards. You will develop your ability to express complex scientific ideas clearly, both orally and in writing. Overall, you will develop your ability to make observations, design scientific investigations, and apply your chemical knowledge to interpret results and reach logical conclusions.
