Chemistry

Assessment

To gain the A level three papers (two hours each) will be taken at the end of Upper Sixth. These will cover work from the whole course. Paper 1 will cover inorganic and physical chemistry, paper 2 organic and physical chemistry and paper 3 will focus on practical techniques. During the course a significant number of practicals will be carried out in order to teach the necessary skills and these will be recorded in a lab book. The final certificate will state whether a pupil is competent in practical skills.
