Chemistry

Course summary

This is a two-year course to A Level. The Salters A Level Chemistry course is slightly different from other Chemistry A Levels in that the subject is taught using Context-Based Learning. This has two main advantages: Firstly, it is engaging and obviously relevant. Secondly, it introduces difficult new concepts in easy stages, with lots of practice during the course. Similar ideas are met in different contexts and in increasing depth. This is designed to fit well with how learning is best achieved. It also builds confidence when tackling unfamiliar material; learning to use existing knowledge to solve problems is excellent preparation for university and beyond.
