What will I study?

GCSE Single Award Science is a two year unitised course. It is a good

choice for you if you want a broad overview of science to GCSE level

but don’t want to study Biology, Chemistry and Physics in detail. GCSE

Single Award Science builds on the science you have studied at Key

Stage 3. However, because this GCSE is designed for breadth of

study rather than depth it is not intended for progression to an A-

level course.

What is GCSE Science Single Award ?

Students who study Single Award Science have a scientific foundation

which is beneficial to those intending to study NVQs or

apprenticeships in vocational areas; e.g. Beauty, Hairdressing,

Childcare, Meat Technology, Electrical Installation, Plumbing and

Catering & Hospitality.

Students will learn important skills such as working with data, problem

solving, investigating methods and drawing conclusions.

What can I do with this qualification?

Single Award Science is assessed throughout the course by three 1

hour written exams in Biology, Chemistry and Physics and a practical

skills assessment and written exam.

Students will be challenged to maximise their potential and will be

entered for the tier which best suits their needs and abilities.
