GCSE Science Resit Programme

Ready to take your next step in science? This intensive one-year programme gives you the opportunity to study GCSE Combined Science and work towards achieving two GCSE qualifications in just one year.

You'll study the three main areas of science: Biology, Chemistry and Physics. During the course you will develop your scientific knowledge, practical skills and confidence along the way.

The course is designed for students who are ready for a focused and challenging year of study and want to gain the science qualifications needed to progress onto a Level 3 programme.

You'll learn how science applies to the world around us, carry out practical investigations and develop the exam skills needed to succeed in your final assessments.

GCSE Combined Science is assessed through six written examinations. You will complete two exams in each of Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

The exams assess your knowledge and understanding across the course, as well as your ability to apply scientific ideas, analyse information and solve problems.

You will also complete required practical activities throughout the course. These give you valuable experience of working scientifically and prepare you for questions about practical science in your exams.

At the end of the programme, you will achieve two GCSEs in Combined Science.

The main aim of the programme is to help you progress onto a Level 3 programme after completing your GCSEs.

Depending on your results and interests, your progression could be on to the following courses:

• T Level Science - Laboratory Sciences
• Level 3 Applied Science
• Level 3 Health and Social Care
• Other Level 3 programmes, depending on your interests and entry requirements.
