The aim of the Year 7 course is foremost for you to enjoy the subject – you will learn new terminology and do lots of experiments your self. The course is divided into 4 sections, each with its own workbook.
At the end of each section there will be a short test to ensure that you have understood the ideas introduced and to show you the areas you may need to work more on.
At the end of Year 7 there will be a summer examination. The revision sheet for this year's summer exam is available to download here.
The four sections covered in Year 7 are titled:
These sections give the boys a good foundation on which to build their chemistry knowledge further up the school.
Chemistry Club for Year 7 runs every Thursday at third break in C4. It's a great opportunity for the boys to try out fun, messy and sometimes explosive experiments that are not part of the normal teaching curriculum.
The boys in the picture opposite have made some fire extinguishers!
