Content is split into six teaching modules: • 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 Learners must complete all components (01, 02, 03, 04) Component 01 assesses content from modules 1,2,3 and 5. Component 02 assesses content from modules 1,2,4 and 6. Component 03 assesses content from all modules (1 -6). To achieve an ‘AS’ Level GCE, candidates study Modules 1, 2, 3 and 4. To achieve an ‘A’ Level GCE Certificate candidates study Modules 5 and 6. Chemistry is a subject that influences every aspect of life. As a subject, it holds great depth and breadth of knowledge, but still further development can be expected. The study of substances and their effects on each other, Chemistry feeds into a wide variety of other subjects from Physics to Medicine and into all the technologies. The contributions of Chemists include better medicines, improved fibers, improved food production, developments in communications, new materials for construction, and new sports and leisure goods. Practical investigation is an essential component of this subject.
To ensure success at this level we students will require a grade 6-6 in GCSE Combined Science. A grade 6 in GCSE Mathematics is recommended.
