Syllabuses
My unofficial support for the
CHEMISTRY of this syllabus - Each topic or unit is linked to potentially
useful sections on this site for the ordinary level chemistry course
Page
for the Leaving Certificate
Programme for the Irish Ordinary/Higher Level Chemistry Syllabus
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING VERY CAREFULLY
My notes and
quizzes were
primarily written for UK based KS3 Science and GCSE/IGCSE courses but users from all over
the English speaking world regularly use the site, so I do my best to link up
with other 'international' courses. The Irish Junior Certificate Science course doesn't quite fit the UK
KS3/GCSE
courses, but there is sufficient overlap to provide series of 'on-site' links to
potentially helpful sections I have written so far. I do not have time to give
extended email responses and I do not deal in past papers and it is up to the
student to decide whether the material 'fits' and 'useful'. All students should have a
copy of the syllabus.
