GCSE

The study of GCSE Science helps you to understand how Science works in the world around you. It will allow you to improve your practical skills, critical thinking and encourage you to develop your opinions through debate.

You will be introduced to the ethics behind current affairs and encouraged to evaluate scientific theories that have been developed throughout the history of Science.

YOU WILL FOLLOW ONE OF THREE SCIENCE GCSE ROUTES:

  1. Triple Sciences (Separate Sciences): this route leads to two examinations in each of the Science disciplines: Biology, Chemistry and Physics to three separate GCSE grades.
  2. Double Award Science: this route leads to one examination in each of the the Science disciplines: Biology, Chemistry and Physics and to two GCSE grades awarded for Science.
  3. Single Award: this route leads to one examination in each of the the Science disciplines: Biology, Chemistry and Physics and to one GCSE grade awarded for Science.
