Chemistry

Chemistry is the study of substances, what they are made of, how they interact and

what role they play in the environment. This course gives a foundation in

chemistry with the study of atoms, molecules, the periodic table and energy, core organic chemistry, along with physical chemistry and transition elements. You will have the opportunity to develop your practical skills through hands-on practical experimentation.

A level chemistry is a demanding but rewarding subject which, either as a standalone subject or when combined with other science subjects opens doors to so many career opportunities in traditional fields such as medicine, pharmacy, research and the

pharmaceutical industry and also provides transferable skills in the areas of math’s, business and law.

You will need a grade 6 in chemistry, or combined science at GCSE and a grade 6 in mathematics.
