Chemistry is an important science as it relates well to all the other sciences and to mathematics. An understanding of chemistry is helpful to understand biological systems at the molecular level and is therefore desirable for subjects such as medicine. It is also relevant to many social science subjects such as Geography and Sociology. Chemistry is much sought after by top British universities. Students taking a science course or science-related subjects should seriously consider chemistry as one of their options.
An interest in, and a desire to study, Chemistry is essential. Students who are willing to spend time studying on their own will do very well and will enjoy the course. We aim to instill a deep interest in the subject, which can be maintained in courses of further education and beyond. GCSE or equivalent IELTS 5.5 or equivalent.
Formal internal assessments take place regularly about once every half term and homework is set on a regular basis. Grades are determined by final examinations, which take place in May/June at the end of the 2-year course. Practical work is assessed within the school for the practical endorsement, which is a pass or fail. An end of year exam must be passed for entry to year 2 and a mock exam must be passed for entry into the public exams.
