It can be easy to forget just how important it is to achieve a satisfactory grade in Maths, English and Science. For the majority of jobs, a minimum grade of a 4/5 is essential in each of these core subjects, so to avoid the disappointment of being rejected for a job purely on this basis.
At the Science Intervention Centre, we work closely with your child to ensure they are ready for their exams but also that they are keeping up and do not fall behind in class.
The specification (what many parents would call the ‘syllabus’) lists all the topics and learning objectives that a student must cover during their entire GCSE course. The new 9-1 specification has been updated substantially and includes more content and more challenging subject content than the old specification. Simply put, the GCSEs are more demanding than before.
At the Science Intervention Centre “learning to learn” is crucial to help students improve their grades. We:
We expect our students to share our love and passion for Science, work hard, enjoy learning and finally… improve their results.
We put learning at the heart of everything we do.
Your child’s grades are just as important now as they ever were. Previously, GCSEs were modular. Students could take some of their GCSE exams and/or ‘coursework units’ well before the end of the course. Under the new system, the GCSEs are completely linear. All the exams are taken at the end of Year 11.
The merits of linear system vs a modular system are debatable and there are pros and cons to each approach. But the fact is that a linear system has now been adopted and that means that a student’s performance during the final GCSE exams this summer is critical to the grade they achieve.
Let’s start helping your children improve their love and understanding of science
