The A‐level course is designed: To develop essential knowledge and understanding of the concepts of chemistry. To increase awareness of how advances in information technology are used in chemistry. To make students appreciate the contributions of chemistry to society and the responsible use of scientific knowledge and evidence. To bring together knowledge of ways in which different areas of chemistry relate to each other. Students will usually be taught by at least two members of the staff. Practical lessons run to support the practical endorsement; students complete at least 12 activities over the two years. The remaining lessons are theory/taking, problem-solving exercises or making use of past examination papers.
Applicants who wish to join us in the Sixth Form have the opportunity to attend a Sixth Form Open Evening. They will then be invited into school to meet Mr Softley, our Assistant Head (Sixth Form & Futures), followed by an invitation to attend our Sixth Form Taster Day. An offer will be made subject to our entry requirements of at least 5 GCSEs grade 4 or above (including at least a 6/B grade in chosen A level subjects).
Paper 1 Physical and inorganic chemistry. 35% of the A‐level. Paper 2 Physical and organic chemistry. 35% of the A‐level. Paper 3 All topics. 30% of the A‐level. Students will have the option of taking AS Chemistry at the end of the two-year course as an alternative to the full A‐level.
