Chemistry Cambridge Challenge 2025

This term, a group of 20 keen Year 12 chemists participated in the prestigious Cambridge Chemistry Challenge (C3L6), a 90-minute two-question exam designed by the University of Cambridge's chemistry department. Aimed at stretching KS5 Chemistry thinking, the challenge encourages students to apply problem-solving skills well beyond standard exam topics.

Certificates are awarded to the top 60% of participants across the UK, with distinctions as Copper (top 30%), Silver (top 20%), and Gold (top 10%).

Our Students’ Outstanding Achievements:

  • 4 Gold 
  • 10 Silver
  • 6 Copper

Well done for taking on a challenge that stretches well beyond the syllabus. Your results are testament to resilience, dedication, and a genuine love of chemistry.  Whether you’re celebrating gold, silver, or copper, be proud of what you’ve achieved, and carry that same spirit into your future studies!

Mrs Moore, Head of Sciences
