Chemistry plays a role in almost every action on earth, and in every object we touch. Chemical scientists are leading research on the world’s most pressing concerns, including challenges around human health, climate change, and energy. A-level Chemistry is an engaging course that requires learners to draw on their knowledge and understanding of fundamental Scientific concepts. The specification is relevant to real world experiences and there is a content-led approach to course delivery. The teaching of practical skills is integrated with the theoretical units. Chemistry A-Level is a highly valued qualification and a good grade in this subject demonstrates an ability to effectively apply scientific methodology in addition to mathematical, practical, and problem-solving skills. Chemistry A-Level is essential for many higher education courses including Medicine, Chemical Engineering, Dentistry, Food Science, Materials Science, Pharmacology, and Veterinary Science but is also an academic qualification favored by Russell Group of Universities, satisfying the entry requirements for a range of unrelated degree courses.
Grade 77 in GCSE Combined Science or grade 7 in GCSE Chemistry coupled with at least a grade 6 in Mathematics.
