An A-level chemistry is an exciting course which is academically demanding. Everything you see, touch, taste, or smell, involves Chemistry in some way. As the central science subject, Chemistry fits well with Biology, Physics, and related subjects. Chemists will be needed to help tackle problems facing us such as synthesising the latest wonder drug, finding more environmentally friendly alternatives to plastics and non-renewable fuels, and devising better batteries - maybe this will involve you. At St. Dunstan's we aim to make you a confident Chemist who can apply their knowledge to practical work in our state-of-the-art labs in the new STEM Building. We will challenge you and support you to be the very best you can be!
Entry requirements for the Sixth Form are currently set at an average of grade 6 or above across all the subjects studied at GCSE with 9-7 (A*/A equivalent) grades in the subjects appropriate to the student’s choice of A Levels. GCSE/IGCSE grade 8 or above in Chemistry, or 8,8 in Double Science, and a grade 7 or above in Mathematics. There is an ongoing and considerable need to use mathematics in A A-level chemistry and students must be confident they will be able to manage this requirement. 20% of the marks across the three A Level papers are awarded for mathematical skills.
