From the moment you entered this world, Chemistry has been a big part of your life, from the food you eat, the medicine that cures you to the air that you breathe. Chemists have had an influence over all of us. Chemists understand how materials are made and work, and in this way can shape the world we live in. Upper Sixth: • Physical Chemistry: Including thermodynamics, rate equations, equilibrium constant (Kc) for homogeneous systems, electrode potentials and electrochemical cells. • Inorganic Chemistry: Including properties of Period 3 elements and their oxides, transition metals and reactions of ions in aqueous solution. • Organic Chemistry: Including optical isomerism, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids and derivatives, aromatic chemistry, amines, polymers, amino acids, proteins and DNA, organic synthesis, NMR spectroscopy and chromatography.
Our Sixth Form entry also requires an interview with the Heads of Sixth Form, after which a conditional offer will be made and will be dependent upon agreed GCSE grade requirements. Our standard requirement is Grade 6 or above in the chosen A-Level subjects (or relevant subject), Grade 5 or above in English and Maths and Grade 4 or above in non-related GCSE subjects.
