This specification is intended to follow on directly from GCSE and allows students to explore further those topics they have encountered with their KS4 programme of study. There is plenty of opportunity to carry out practical work and the Department is well equipped for this. Students enjoy a range of additional activities, trips and lectures to supplement the core curriculum and all are invited to take part in the Senior Chemistry Society. Chemistry, like all Sciences, is a practical subject. Throughout the course students will carry out practical activities including: • Measuring energy changes in chemical reactions • Tests for identifying different types of compound • Different methods for measuring rate of reaction • Studying electrochemical cells • Preparation of organic solids and liquids • An advanced form of chromatography for more accurate results.
