Triple Science is designed for those who see themselves at the forefront of specialist scientific discovery and high-level technical innovation. By exploring additional, complex topics - from astrophysics to organic synthesis - this route provides a significant head-start for high-stakes careers in medicine, veterinary science, chemical engineering, and aerospace technology. It is the ideal pathway for students aiming for roles in pharmacology, forensic science, or theoretical physics, where a deeper grasp of intricate mathematical and chemical models is required. Choosing Triple Science signals a commitment to mastering the specific disciplines required to lead in the global STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) landscape.
AQA
All students whether taking Triple Science or Combined science will sit six papers: two biology, two chemistry and two physics.
Each of the papers will assess knowledge and understanding from distinct topic areas.
Students will be expected to have undertaken core practicals during the course. Science GCSEs are now 100% exam based.
Students will be awarded 3 GCSEs. Students will study all three science subjects achieving a separate GCSE grade in each of Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
