Chemistry A Level builds upon the knowledge gained at GCSE but goes much further. The course allows you to develop a range of skills such as problem-solving, analysis and effective communication. Handling data is a key component of this course and you will build up practical skills as well as secure knowledge relating to Health and Safety. The course requires students to select the most appropriate methods for the investigative activities. Unit 1: Development of practical skills in Chemistry Unit 2: Foundations in Chemistry Unit 3: Periodic Table and energy Unit 4: Core organic Chemistry Unit 5: Physical Chemistry and transition elements Unit 6: Organic Chemistry and analysis
Grade 7 in GCSE Chemistry or 7/7 in Double Award Science and Grade 6 in GCSE Mathematics.
As there is no longer a coursework element, practical skills will be assessed within lessons and the exams. The skills you demonstrate within lessons will go towards the practical endorsement certificate which is either a Pass or Fail.
