Assessment

Year 1 ● There are two Year 1 exams: Paper 1 covers all topics, and Paper 2 also covers all topics plus practical skills & data analysis. These papers would only be sat by students who would not be continuing the course into Y13. Year 2 ● There are three A-Level exams: Papers 1 and 2 cover all Year 1 and 2 topics, and Paper 3 covers the option topics plus practical skills and data analysis. There is no coursework or controlled assessment that contributes to the final A-Level grade. However, you will be assessed on your practical skills throughout the course and this will be reported on your final certificate.
