Key Stage 4 Science Learning Journeys

There are two routes to GCSEs in Science at St Joseph's.  

Most students follow the GCSE Combined Science course which is the equivalent of two GCSEs.  

A selected number of students follow the Triple/Separate Science subjects: GCSE Biology, GCSE Chemistry and GCSE Physics.  

Both routes have dedicated Biology, Chemistry and Physics lessons with separate teachers, and both are assessed at the end of Year 11 by six examinations (these are 30 minutes longer for the Separate Science students).
