Course Overview
This one year practical vocational course is the equivalent of four GCSE grades A*-C and it will provide you with an interesting and stimulating approach to the study of science. This course covers a wide range of scientific disciplines and it is a good choice if you are interested in developing an understanding of science and how to solve scientific problems. It is made up a number of core and optional units.
As part of the course you will be able to undertake your own scientific research project as well as completing practical assessments. Other units in the course will cover aspects of physics, chemistry, biology, the environment, health and disease, and the universe.
Good English and maths skills are essential for success in studying and for future employment prospects and so Croydon College ensures that these skills are developed in all learning opportunities.
It’s also important to have good English and maths qualifications and so all students will study English and maths and work towards an appropriate level and type of qualification including GCSE. This will be part of all 16-18 year old students’ Study Programme alongside their main vocational or academic qualification and will be discussed with students at interview.
