Course Content

Chemistry A: a content-led approach. A flexible approach where the specification is divided into topics, each covering different key concepts of chemistry. Teaching of practical skills is integrated with the theoretical topics and they’re assessed both through written papers and, for A level only, the Practical Endorsement. 

Content is split into six teaching modules:
  • Module 1 – Development of practical skills in chemistry
  • Module 2 – Foundations in chemistry
  • Module 3 – Periodic table and energy
  • Module 4 – Core organic chemistry
  • Module 5 – Physical chemistry and transition elements
  • Module 6 – Organic chemistry and analysis 

Assessment

  • Periodic table, elements and physical chemistry, 100 marks, 2 hours 15 minutes written paper. 37% of total A level.
  • Synthesis and analytical techniques, 100 marks, 2 hours 15 minutes written paper. 37% of total A level
  • Unified chemistry, 70 marks, 1 hour 30 minutes written paper. 26% of total A level 

Career Opportunities
