Science

All students in Year 10 will take at least one GCSE Science course. The choices we offer through Year 10 and 11 are designed to develop your scientific understanding for the twenty-first century and will enable you to engage in the world of science as consumer, citizen and as an employee. The aim is to prepare you for future roles in an increasingly complex world and to answer questions about yourself and your place in a technological society.

If you have a strong interest in Science you may wish to follow the Triple Science option. In this case you will study Biology, Chemistry and Physics as three separate GCSE subjects through Years 10 and 11.

The Triple Science course covers all the contents of  GCSE Combined Science (see below) but also includes additional topics, adding breadth to the subjects, for example

· structure and function of the human brain and eye  (Biology)

· chemical cells and fuel cells  (Chemistry)

· the life cycle of stars, supernovae and black holes  (Physics).
