In year 1 you will study the following, Atomic Structure; Amount of Substance; Bonding; Energetics; Kinetics; Equilibria; Oxidation & Reduction; Periodicity; Group 2 The Alkaline Earth Metals; Group 7(17) The Halogens; Introduction to Organic Chemistry; Alkanes: Halogenoalkanes; Alkenes; Alcohols; Organic Analysis. In year 2 you will study Thermodynamics; Kinetics; Kinetics; Equilibrium; Electrode Potentials; Acids, Bases & Buffers; Periodicity of the Transition Metals; Reactions of Inorganic Compounds in Aqueous Solutions; Nomenclature and Isomerism; Carbonyl Compounds; Aromatic Chemistry; Amines; Polymerisation; Amino Acids; Protein; DNA; Organic Synthesis; Structure Determination. Students must also complete a (minimum) twelve Required Practical assignments. They will be assessed against the Common Practical Assessment Criteria (CPAC) and keep an appropriate record of their practical work in a lab book. They will learn how to use various apparatus and demonstrate their technique (AT). Students who demonstrate the required standard across all the requirements of the CPAC will receive a ‘pass’ grade. Written papers will assess knowledge and understanding of these practical assignments and the skills exemplified within each practical.
A minimum of 7 GCSEs awarded at grade 6 or above. These should include English and Mathematics. SCHS recommended grades in Mathematics as well as Chemistry
The examinations will measure how students have achieved the following assessment objectives: - AO1: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas, processes, techniques and procedures. AO2: Apply knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas, processes, techniques and procedures in a theoretical context. In a practical context, when handling qualitative and quantitative data. AO3: Analyse, interpret and evaluate scientific information, ideas and evidence. To make judgements and reach conclusions; develop and refine practical design and procedures. Paper 1 -2 hour written examination; 105 marks (short and long answer questions) 35% of A-level. Paper 2 -2 hour written examination; 105 marks (short and long answer questions) 35% of A-level. Paper 3 -2 hour written examination; 90 marks (40 marks of questions on practical techniques and data analysis; 20 marks of questions testing across the specification; 30 marks of multiple choice). 30% of A-level Coursework: None
