Our Sixth Form students study the renowned International Baccalaureate. Admission is subject to achieving at least five GCSEs at Grades 9-4 (previously A* to C), or equivalent. We also invite you for an interview with the Headmaster and/or the Assistant Head (IB). In addition, we ask you to take an entrance examination.
At both higher and standard levels 80 % of the final grade is based upon examinations with 20 % on Internal Assessment. The IB Chemistry exam is made up of 3 exam papers: Paper 1 – Multiple Choice (20 %) SL – 30 questions in 45 minutes HL – 40 questions in 60 minutes Paper 2 – Structured Questions (40 %) SL – 75 minutes HL – 135 minutes Paper 3 – Data Response questions plus the Option topic (20 %) SL – 60 minutes HL – 75 minutes
