A Level Chemistry a content-led approach. A flexible approach where the specification is divided into topics, each covering different key concepts of chemistry. Teaching of practical skills is integrated with the theoretical topics and they’re assessed both through written papers and, for A level only, the Practical Endorsement. The course 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 The A Level in Chemistry aims to encourage learners 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. • Develop their interest in and enthusiasm for the subject, including developing an interest in further study and careers associated with the subject. • Understand how society makes decisions about scientific issues and how the sciences contribute to the success of the economy and society.
You will be required to achieve at least a grade 6 in GCSE Chemistry or GCSE Combined Science. A grade 6 In GCSE Mathematics is also advisable.
