key stage 3 & gcse
Science at Key Stage 3 introduces students to a wide range of scientific knowledge,
concepts and skills in the three subject areas of Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
These
concepts are developed during Key Stage 4 and, with greater emphasis on the application
of Science in the modern world, students are encouraged to apply their understanding
and form opinions about the ways in which Science is used.
Students in
Year 10 follow the 21st Century Science Curriculum which is designed to stimulate
interest in, and understanding of, contemporary science issues.
In Year
11, students may undertake a more advanced study of scientific concepts in preparation
for Post 16 Science courses.
Alternatively they may undertake an applied
course which is designed to further students’ understanding of the way
that Science is used in the world today.
