SCIENCE – KEY STAGE 5

Spacer

At Key Stage 5, students refine their scientific thinking, developing deeper understanding, independence, and a strong foundation for further study or careers in science.

Spacer

We offer three AQA A Level courses in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, alongside an AAQ qualification in Medical Science. Each course is taught by subject specialists, with students receiving nine lessons per fortnight to support in-depth learning and mastery of key concepts.

Spacer

Across all courses, students build advanced practical, analytical, and evaluative skills, applying their knowledge to unfamiliar contexts and real-world issues. This prepares them not only for examination success, but for confident progression into higher education and STEM-related pathways.
