What the college says

Understanding Chemistry is essential to the understanding of many other scientific disciplines, from Agroscience to Zoology. Chemistry plays a vital role in everyday life. The course provides excellent preparation for further study at university and is required for most medical and veterinary science courses; but it also opens doors to a wide range of non-scientific courses and career paths. Chemistry is a challenging and well-respected qualification and many of our students have used their A Level Chemistry as a platform to obtain excellent degrees from the country's top universities. The Chemistry course involves exploration of physical, organic and inorganic chemistry. Students will develop further their skills of investigation through practical experiments, problem-solving, calculations and discussion.
