Pathways at KS4 for Year 9 GCSE Science GCSE Additional Science

GCSE Science Summary: The GCSE in Science is made up of three externally assessed units, including one Biology, one Chemistry and one Physics unit, as well as a controlled assessment unit.

Biology = 25% – Influences on life Key topics: Classifications, variation and inheritance. Responses to a changing environment. Problems of, and solutions to, a changing environment. Exam: 1 hour (60 mark, tiered) November, March or May/June – All year 10, Only May/June – year 9.

Chemistry = 25% - Chemistry in our world Key topics: The Earth’s sea and atmosphere. Materials for the Earth. Acids. Obtaining and using metals. Fuels. Exam:1 hour (60 mark, tiered) November, March or May/June – All year 10, Only May/June – year 9.

Physics = 25% Universal physics Key topics: Visible light and the Solar System The electromagnetic spectrum Waves and the Universe Waves and the Earth Generation and transmission of electricity Energy and the future Exam:1 hour (60 mark, tiered) November, March or May/June – All year 10, Only May/June – year 9.

Controlled assessment - 25% Tasks: 1. Planning. 2. Observations. 3. Conclusions. Assessment: Completed in the classroom, marked by class teachers (internally) and moderated externally.

GCSE Additional Science Summary: The GCSE in Additional Science is made up of three externally assessed units, including one Biology, one Chemistry and one Physics unit, as well as a controlled assessment unit.

Biology % – The components of life Key topics: The building blocks of cells. Organisms and energy. Common systems. Exam: 1 hour (60 mark, tiered). May/June only (both year 10 and 9).

Chemistry - 25% Discovering chemistry Key topics: Atomic structure and the periodic table. Ionic compounds and analysis. Covalent compounds and separation techniques. Groups in the periodic table. Chemical reactions. Quantitative chemistry. Exam: 1 hour (60 mark, tiered). May/June only (both year 10 and 9).

Physics - 25% Physics for your future Key topics: Static and current electricity. Controlling and using electric current. Motion and forces. Momentum, energy, work and power. Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion. Advantages and disadvantages of using radioactive materials. Exam: 1 hour (60 mark, tiered). May/June only (both year 10 and 9).

Controlled assessment - 25% Tasks: 1. Planning. 2. Observations. 3. Conclusions. Assessment: Completed in the classroom, marked by class teachers (internally) and moderated externally.
