Why study International GCSE Chemistry
IGCSE Chemistry Course will allow you to learn about unifying patterns and themes of chemistry. You
will acquire knowledge and understanding of chemical facts, concepts and principles and develop a
logical approach to problem solving in a wider context.
The course is designed to engage students and give them skills that will support progression to
further study in chemistry and a range of other subjects, in chemical sciences and elsewhere.
The content and assessment approach has been designed to meet students’ needs and be consistent with
our approach across the sciences.
The content and assessment approach in all Edexcel science qualifications has been designed to meet
students’ needs in the following ways.
Content that is interesting and engaging for students but is also designed to ensure good
preparation, both for those continuing to further study and for those who wish to work in a
chemistry-related field.
There are opportunities to ‘localise’ the content to make it more relevant for students in their
own country.
Question papers are clear and straightforward
Students’ skills are broadly developed
– we have designed the International GCSE to extend students’ knowledge by broadening and deepening
skills, for example: – developing students’ practical skills by including a number of practicals in
the specification content. These can be supplemented with other suggested practicals. The skills
developed will be assessed through questions in written examinations
– improving students’ analytical and logic skills by applying understanding of scientific concepts
and principles to a range of situations. This will include some examination questions that are more
problem solving in style
– addressing the need for mathematical skills to complement students’ chemistry skills by covering a
range of mathematical areas.
The Chemistry International GCSE course is for the Edexcel specification and is divided into four
modules, as follows:
Topic 1: Principles of chemistry
Topic 2: Inorganic chemistry
Topic 3: Physical chemistry
Topic 4: Organic chemistry
Note: ITS Education Asia supports Double Award sciences as well as stand
alone sciences.
Progression to A Level
International GCSEs enable successful progression to A Level and beyond.
