“Additional Applied Science was more appropriate than anything else we have seen.”
Paul Harrison, Oakwood Technology School, Rotherham, South Yorkshire

"There is a reason why the material is being taught rather than just 'it’s always been taught’.”
Jules Hoult, Head of Science, Felsted School, Essex.
 
“This course provided the student with the opportunity to study the relevance of science to them and their future; it develops their scientific literacy skills and provides them with the skills to make judgements about modern science based on risk and benefit. The traditional schemes teach the facts (many irrelevant to what our students will meet in the future) and give a cursory link to society if you are lucky and if time allows!”
Richard Barber, Advanced Skills Teacher – Science, Moulton School Science College, Moulton, Northamptonshire

 
“More opportunity to discuss topical science. Up to date attractive resources provided.”
Peter Humphries, Curriculum Manager, Darlaston Community School, Darlaston, West Midlands

“Being able to choose the Additional Science course to meet the needs of the student. GCSE Science is very relevant and does an excellent job in covering scientific literacy.”
Phil Baron, science teacher i/c vocational courses, South Hunsley School, North Ferriby, East Yorkshire
