What the college says

A-Level Chemistry delivers a comprehensive look at the world around us. It touches every aspect of our lives from the bodily functions within us to the atmosphere. This course is for students who want to understand this and the physical universe better. Through chemistry we can describe and explain questions such as: “what happens when sugar dissolves in tea?”; “why is mercury a liquid at room temperature?”; “how do we make plastics?”; “what can we do about global warming?”. The course will also ensure that you develop independent study skills, familiarise yourself with experimental techniques, and will provide you with an established understanding of Chemistry if you wish to continue studying it beyond A Level.
