Please see the transition work to be completed in the summer between GCSE and the beginning of Year 12.
Chemistry is the study of all chemical substances and how they interact with each other. If you have a curiosity about what the world around you is made of, the clothes you wear, the gadgets you use, the food you eat, the natural and built environment around you, then chemistry could be for you.
Chemistry will enable you to develop problem solving, time management, data handling and team working skills whilst carrying out a wide variety of experiments. Key skills that will prepare you for a wide variety of careers in the future including medicine, law, engineering and finance.
Year 13 student
I've really enjoyed my time at Coombe and hope to study medicine at University. I'm currently studying Chemistry, Maths and Biology at A level. I've found Chemistry particularly interesting as you get to explore new ideas and relate them to the world around you. Also I've had he opportunity to be involved in Science Club, where we perform exciting experiments for the lower school students.
