A Level (7405): Atomic Structure, Calculations, Bonding, Periodicity, Crude Oil and Alkanes, Energetics, Kinetics, Equilibria, Redox Reactions, The Halogens, Alkenes, Haloalkanes and Alcohols, Organic Analysis. Kinetics, Equilibria, Acids and Bases, Advanced Organic Chemistry, Thermodynamics, Periodicity, Redox and Electrochemical Cells, Equilibria, Transition Metals, Reactions of Inorganic Compounds, Analysis. Students can also take part in various extracurricular activities including spectroscopy workshops, molecules research, presentations, and lab coat dyeing.
A grade 7 in GCSE Chemistry (or 7-7 in GCSE Double Award Science). A good ability with GCSE Mathematics (Grade 6 or above) is essential as a large proportion of the questions at A Level involve calculations. A Level Mathematics is not essential but would help give pupils extra confidence in dealing with these calculations.
Practical work forms part of the course. It is assessed during the written exams at the end of the course and practical skills are assessed continually throughout the two years. A pass or fail is recorded. Paper 1: Physical and Inorganic Chemistry and practical skills (120 minutes). 35% weighting of final qualification. Paper 2: Organic Chemistry and practical skills (120 minutes). 35% weighting of final qualification. Paper 3: Covers any content and practical skills (120 minutes). 30% weighting of final qualification.
