Chemistry

Assessment

The course at A-level is linear; you will sit three exams at the end of Year 13 for A-level certification. All students carry out practical work throughout the whole two-year course and all the lessons take place in Chemistry laboratories. You will carry out 16 core practicals which will be assessed by your teachers. If successful, you will be awarded a Practical Endorsement, which is reported on the A-level certificate in addition to the overall grade. Remember, there is always someone to ask when you need help, whether a friend from your year group, a Year 13 mentor or, a member of the Chemistry staff. Above all, we want our students to enjoy Chemistry and be successful.
