What some of our students say about chemistry at sixth form
We get to do experiments using new equipment and use molymods to make molecules.
Definitely not boron!
A great subject –highly recommended
Much more interesting than it sounds - you get
to set fire to stuff!
Chemistry is an amazing way of getting a deeper understanding of Science.
Biology and Chemistry both cross over very well, helping you to learn more
