What the college says

OCR B Salters Chemistry A-Level promotes the development of problem solving and genuine chemical skills using context based applications. In this way, problem solving can be taught in varied contexts, new developments can be incorporated into the course, and the emphasis is placed on learning the fundamentals rather than simply the facts about what is current. Chemistry offers opportunities to incorporate cutting-edge science, such as the emerging fields of molecular genetics, biotechnology, materials, semiconductors and nanotechnology, for which chemistry, being a mature science, has become a collaborative subject. The course highlights the principles that unify the subject and seeks to examine them through their application to chemical situations. The linear assessment structure means that learners are tested at the end of the two-year course, allowing them to rationalise and relate the facts they learn to the wider subject.
