Content

This course is designed around the National Group Award for Applied Science and allows you to develop practical skills whilst studying various science subjects at National 5 Level. It involves completion of a variety of science investigations and experiments whilst at the same time developing your knowledge and understanding. You will study all three sciences to ensure that you have a well rounded knowledge base to allow positive progression in any of the main scientific frameworks.

To be successful in industry and further studies you must be scientifically literate and be able to analyse the links that present themselves through theory and practical experiences. We will help you to do this through your involvement in communications, ICT and experimental procedures classes.
