The GCSE is a very extensive course and we begin teaching foundation topics in the 3rd Form. At the end of the 3rd Form pupils have a free choice to either study Chemistry as a separate GCSE subject or to take the dual (combined) award which has less material to be covered but still at the same level. Chemistry specialists who are enthusiastic and experienced proponents of their subject and produce excellent results teach these courses in small groups in well-resourced laboratories. Pupils are encouraged to develop independent learning skills and are provided with a wealth of material, support workbooks, revision guides and course-relevant textbooks in hard and electronic versions.
Our current requirement for entry into the Sixth Form is a minimum of six Grade 5s at GCSE (or the equivalent), preferably with Grade 7s in the subjects to be studied at A Level. Places are offered on the basis of an interview with the academic team and Head of Sixth Form, academic assessment, predicted GCSE results and a report from the pupil’s current school.
