Chemistry is the science that is central to understanding and developing modern day technology. In fields that range from medicines to fuels, polymers to dyes, the skills and knowledge of the Chemist are fundamental in furthering and sustainable green technology to meet the need of growing population and finite resources. Chemistry also underpins our understanding of how living organisms and ecosystems work, as well as our relationship with the wider environment through study of the chemistry of our atmosphere. Chemistry is a rigorous but highly rewarding subject and students find the topics covered both stimulating and relevant.
- Higher grades in the A-level sciences correlate strongly with high GCSE grades. A GCSE grade of 6 or higher will put you in a strong position at A-level studies. As you study a combined course at GCSE, we would be happy to advise you if you have a particular strength in one of the sciences which is not reflected in your overall GCSE grade. We are happy to consider grade 5 GCSE grades for A-level study, but this will require a commitment to attendance at additional clinics to support your studies – success at A-level is certainly possible but you need to recognise that there will be gaps to fill. - 5 GCSEs based on an average grade 4 or above. Enrolment will be based on achieving a grade 4 GCSE in the relevant subjects and usually a grade 4 in Maths and English Language.
The A-level is assessed by three examinations
