Have you ever wondered why ice floats, why people put salt on icy roads, why onions make you cry, how aspirin stops pain in your body or whether you can turn lead into gold? Study A level Chemistry to find out the answers. Everything you hear, see, smell, taste, and touch involves Chemistry and chemicals. Hearing, seeing, tasting, and touching all involve an intricate series of chemical reactions and interactions in your body. With such an enormous range of topics, it is essential to know about Chemistry at some level to understand the world around us. A level Chemistry will give you an exciting insight into the contemporary world of Chemistry. Key concepts and practical skills are integrated throughout the course. This combination of academic challenge and practical focus makes the prospect of studying the A level highly appealing. You will learn about Chemistry in a range of different contexts and the impact it has on industry and many aspects of everyday life. You will learn to investigate and solve problems in a range of contexts.
You will need to have obtained 5 GCSEs at 9-4 including a grade 4 in English. You will need to have gained a grade 6 or above in GCSE Chemistry, GCSE Double Science or their equivalent. Students should also have gained a grade 6 or better in GCSE Maths.
Periodic table, elements and physical Chemistry. (Component 01) assesses content from teaching modules 1, 2, 3 and 5. Synthesis and analytical techniques. (Component 02) assesses content from teaching modules 1, 2, 4 and 6. Both include multiple choice, short answer and extended response questions. Unified Chemistry (Component 03) assesses content from across all teaching modules 1 to 6. Question styles include short answer and extended response questions. Practical endorsement in Chemistry (Component 04) is a separately reported non-exam assessment component which rewards the development of practical skills. Students may work in groups but must be able to demonstrate and let teachers record independent evidence of their competency. The activities will take place throughout the lower sixth and upper sixth.
