All Children Can Achieve

Science

Science A level courses are available in the Sixth Form.

They can be studied as a one year AS course or a two year A level.  Science A levels are purely assessed by terminal examinations.

Practical skills are assessed separately by teacher observation on a pass or fail basis. There are 12 required practical activities. Science A levels are academically demanding and are only advisable if a pupil achieves a grade 6-6 in their Science GCSEs and grade 5 in Maths GCSE.
