Teacher in Charge: Bev Pantry.
Science is compulsory at Year 11.

The course is designed for students who wish to continue with a specialty Science, such as Biology, Chemistry or Physics at Level 2. The course looks at the four main strands of Science: understanding about Science; investigating; communication; participating and contributing in Science. The course may include the study of: acids and bases – atomic structure, rates of reaction and acid-base chemistry; genetics – genetics and the diversity that is in our DNA; and mechanics – forces, motion and energy. This course leads to Level 2 Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
