Overview
On the A-level pathway all learners study three traditional A-levels. We offer A-levels in Biology, Computer Science, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics and Product Design with an option to study additional subjects in Further Mathematics* and the Extended Project Qualification*.
Learners on this prestigious pathway will be expected to achieve grades of Level 7 and above in the majority of their GCSEs and will be required to achieve Level 7 grades in Mathematics and Sciences. This means that applicants who choose this pathway will be some of our most able learners as traditional A-levels require high levels of academic ability and strong levels of commitment to independent study beyond the classroom. The pathway can lead to places at esteemed higher education establishments, including the research-intensive Russell Group universities, along with offers of higher apprenticeships at world-class companies such as Rolls-Royce.

Chemistry at A-level is one of the most prestigious and exciting courses available here at The JCB Academy Sixth Form. Chemistry not only improves some lifelong skills such as logical thinking and intuitiveness, but it can also assist with skills in other areas of learning such as mathematics & engineering. A key aspect of this course is keeping the practical element new and exhilarating to ensure learners are engaged and challenged. More importantly, encouragement of practical participation aids the development of independent learning which is essential for any university enrolment.
Chemistry opens up many career opportunities for our learners; such careers are within Medicine & Healthcare, Chemical Engineering and Forensic Science.

Learners on our A-level Mathematics course will study a range of varied and exciting modules during their two years of study. These modules range from Decision Mathematics, covering abstract reasoning topics such as critical path analysis, to a suit of Mechanics and Statistics modules which cover how mathematics is applied to real-life problems. Alongside these elements of the course, learners will gain the opportunity to further their understanding of more traditional topics such as complex algebra, trigonometry and calculus. As a result of studying this course, learners will improve their understanding of mathematical processes, develop the ability to reason logically and construct mathematical proofs, and many other skills which are highly regarded by both industry and universities.

Product Design is all about how people interact with everything they touch in their lives. All man-made objects have been designed and they are used to show things like success, power, status and even emotions. The world revolves around well-designed products and this is your chance to make a difference, to change the world and to send out a clear signal that you can thing about the very big things in life as well as the very small.
