The one-to-one study of chemistry with a qualified tutor extends the candidates’ knowledge and understanding of the physical and natural environments and the development of the problem solving and practical skills associated with scientific enquiry beyond Intermediate 2. A grounding for the future study of chemistry and chemistry-related subjects in higher education is provided for candidates who wish to pursue a career in a science-based area.

As such, the chemistry tutorial course is designed to provide opportunities in appropriate contexts for the candidates to acquire:
• knowledge and understanding of chemical facts, theories and symbols
• the ability to solve chemical problems
• the ability to carry out chemical techniques and investigations
• positive attitudes, by helping candidates to be open-minded and willing to recognise alternative
points of view, and to be interested in science and aware that they can take decisions which affect
the well-being of themselves and others, and the quality of their environment.

In problem solving, the Standard Grade Chemistry, Intermediate Chemistry and Higher Chemistry candidates will be expected to:
• select and present information
• carry out calculations
• plan, design and evaluate experimental procedures
• draw conclusions and give explanations
• make generalisations and predictions.

As a result of engaging in practical work candidates will be expected to:
• describe experimental procedures
• record relevant measurements and observations
• analyse experimental information
• draw valid conclusions
• evaluate experimental procedures with supporting argument.

In addition, the learning experiences make an important contribution to candidates’ general education
by:
• emphasising the relevance of chemistry to everyday living
• developing core skills
• raising awareness of the links between the subject and the world of work in general, and the
chemical industry in particular
• providing opportunities for independent and cooperative learning.
