PEARSON EDEXCEL SPECIFICATIONS (Combined science) Separate Sciences (triple) Specification code: 1SCO Biology Specification code: 1BIO https://qualifications.pearson.com/en/ qualifications/edexcel-gcses/sciences- 2016.html Chemistry Specification code: 1CHO Physics Specification code: 1PHO
THE EXAMINATIONS COMBINED Combined Science 2 Biology exams 1 hour 10 minutes each 2 Chemistry exams 1 hour 10 minutes each 2 Physics exams 1 hour 10 minutes each Each exam is 60 marks
THE EXAMINATIONS TRIPLE Separate sciences Biology: 2 exams 1 hour 45minutes each Chemistry: 2 exams 1 hour 45minutes each Physics: 2 exams 1 hour 45minutes each Each exam is 100 marks

REQUIRED PRACTICAL There are required practical experiments to complete for both options 18 required practical activities for Combined (6 for each science) 6 for Biology 6 for Chemistry 6 for Physics These are completed in school however there is opportunity for students to revise them through virtual experiments online https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHVcJ1fHYWg
HOW CAN YOU HELP? Encourage them to use the resources we have outlined in the letter to you It is important they are completing exam questions as this is best practice for them Physics and Maths tutors Tassomai CGP revision guide Cognito Science videos Support them to practice the use of equations for all 3 subjects. YES! they do need calculators for all 3 Science examinations
PROGRESS FOLDERS & PLC PERSONALISED LEARNING CHECKLIST Students will receive these at the beginning of each topic These are to review the topic students are learning Students will check that they have notes for each section of topic PLC follows the Pearson Edexcel specification Students use these to identify weaknesses and strengths Students can highlight areas to focus on for revision
GCSE HOMEWORK, VLE AND ONLINE RESOURCES All Y10s and Y11s are given online homework on Tassomai . Please support your child by encouraging them to complete their 4 daily goals regularly during each week. You can find online links to resources that would be very useful to students in their preparation are in your leaflets provided and on our website We are looking into offered discounted prices on student revision workbooks which can be purchased online via parent mail.
GSCE SCIENCE HOMEWORK AND REVISION RESOURCES Combined Science workbook 6 each Triple workbooks 4 each
ANY QUESTIONS? Thank You
