This update is for A level Science and provides information about the Head Teacher declaration form that should be submitted by the 15 May.
A level Science practical requirements for 2023
As mentioned in a previous update practical requirements return to normal in 2023 for GCSE and A level Science. This means that students sitting A level Sciences in Summer 2023 are required to meet all the CPAC conditions stated in the A level Science specifications.
To support centres with practical work we provide A level Core Practical Guides and practical playlists for each A level Science qualification. These are located on the 'Teaching and Learning Materials' pages.

Centres are required to sign and send in the A level Science Head Teacher form by the 15 May to declare that students have completed a minimum of 12 practical activities that meet the practical Endorsement requirements of the A level science specifications.
