  3. Double Science Triple Science All exams are taken at the end of the two year course (at the end of Year 11). There are 6 written papers (1 hour 15 minutes each), 2 for each subject. Each paper is a mix of multiple choice, structured, closed short answer and open responses. All exams are taken at the end of the two year course (at the end of Year 11).

Students will gain two grades which will be linked. Students will gain three separate grades; Biology; Chemistry; Physics

  4. Higher Foundation

  5. Groups in Science (double award)… Ma H1 Cy H2 Ye HF H3

  6. Groups in Science (triple award)… Set A Set B

  7. Feedback… Verbal Written • Ability to reflect • Resilience Topic tests and exams • Independence

  8. Coursework There is no coursework element any longer, however… • Students have to complete required practical investigations. • Practical skills will be tested within the exam papers.
