O

My journey into sixth form was not an easy one. The jump from GCSE to A Level is one of the hardest ones anyone will have to go through in their adolescent life. I had to make a decision on which course was the best for me, at rst I wanted to do A Levels but through speaking to sixth form students and teachers I made the decision to do Health and Social Care, as I wanted to be a primary school teacher.
The Health and Social Care course gives you the opportunity to do 100 hours
work placement in whatever health and social care se ng you would like, whether it be a den st or a school, the decision is yours. Placement is a fantas c real life experience and gives you an insight into what the job is really like and helped me to be er my grade from pass to dis nc on. With the knowledge I had gained through observa on and prac cal work and my improved grade I am now going on to university to ful l my dream. In all seriousness, I would not be doing this if it wasn’t for Campsmount. I don’t just mean the students and teaching and buildings, I mean the expecta on and
mo va on given in order to be successful. Sixth form life is very di erent from school life. Although supported all the way through by the sixth form sta , you become much more independent and are responsible for your own learning. They do a really good job of realising what you are capable of and making sure you get there. There’s no doubt I will miss Campsmount, it has been a big part of my life. Hollie Gladman, 2013 leaver.
Hollie received ‘The Doncaster Freeman Young Person Award’ for 2013

Campsmount Academy 6th Form Prospectus
There is something about the homely feel of the school that makes Campsmount a great place to learn.
The sta , too, aid in this process, obviously. Filled with all kinds of people, Campsmount o ers something that, I feel, no other sixth form can: immediate comfort.
A person can feel truly welcomed into this li le society, this li le family. With the head of sixth, Mr Grove’s, door perpetually open, all your worries can be immediately dealt with—
if not by him, then by the tutors of the sixth form. It is these li le comforts that allow you to focus on the more important things in sixth form . . . like actually doing some work.
The lessons are completely di erent to year 11 as they are much more in mate. The class sizes are small and it is like students and sta work as a team in order to achieve.
There are other bonuses, by the way, don’t think that Mr Grove and his team are the only perk, no. We have Emma. ‘Who is Emma?’
I hear you say. Well, Emma is our very own Duchess of Dinner. Needless to say, she keeps us stocked up on all our culinary requirements. If that is not enough to persuade you to come to the sixth form, what is?
Oh! It might be that we have record breaking results . . . Or something like that.

Music Technology is a �exible, performance-based vocational course.
The aim is to develop the performance skills and knowledge needed to play successfully alone and in a group. This deals with rehearsing, technique, listening to other performers, andthe practical concerns of arranging a concert or working in the recording studio.
There are no formal exams; the process of working towards performances and your development is the main assessment drive.
The BTEC suits students who play an instrument or sing, but do notnecessarily read music or want to do a more academic course suchas A Level Music.
It is ideal for guitarists, bassists, keyboard players, drummers, vocalists (pop, rock or musicals) or jazz musicians.
This is a two year course.
Students who do not complete the full two years may achieve certi�cation at Level 3 Certi�cate Level.
Future Opportunities?
BTEC Subsidiary Diplomas are equivalent to one complete A Level andare recognised by the music industry and all universities and colleges.
The study of BTEC Music Technology is also possible depending on student needs and aptitude.
Suitable further education courses would be a degree at a music collegeor university, or a joint course with music performance and anotherrelated subject

level Biology deals with
life processes, with an
emphasis on human
biology and the ways in which
we are a�ected by, and in return
influence other living things.
In Year 12...Unit 1 – Cells, Exchange and Transport
You will learn about cell structure;
the parts of a cell you can see with light
and electron microscopy, how a cell
can interact with its surrounding and
other cells, also how cells divide.
This allows you to develop your
understanding of the complex transport
systems of both plants and animals.
Unit 2 – Molecules, Biodiversity,
Food and Health
This module focuses on the biological
molecules that are the building blocks
of life, in particular carbohydrates,
proteins, lipids and DNA. The study of
habitats develops your understanding of
the breadth of living things in the world
around us. You will learn to classify all
living organisms, how life on earth has
evolved and how the actions of humans
can influence life on earth.
In Year 13...Unit 1 – Communication,
Homeostasis and Energy
This unit looks at the role of hormones
and nerves in the whole organism
communication systems. The role of the
kidney in excretion is studied and how
energy is involved in photosynthesis
and respiration.
Unit 2 – Control, Genomes and Environment
This unit builds on your knowledge of
DNA from AS Level Biology. Looking at
the role of DNA and how it controls life at
a cellular level. You will also consider the
role of genetic information in variation.
Cloning is studied along with how
industry uses biotechnology.
Finally an understanding of how the
plants and animals respond to their
environment is studied.
Unit 3 – Practical Skills in Biology
You will carry out complex practical
techniques and practical tasks under
examination conditions. You will be
required to demonstrate the ability to
interpret, analyse and process data,
this will also be tested under
examination conditions.

hemistry is the study of
materials; what they
are made of, how they
interact with each other and
their surroundings and the role
they play in living things.
As such chemistry occupies a central
position in science, linking disciplines from
mathematics to medicine and a�ects
every aspect of our lives. Our clothes,
the paper we write on, the food we eat,
even the celebratory drink when exams
are over, all have been improved by
people studying Chemistry.
In Year 12...Unit 1 - Atoms, Bonds and Groups
Takes atomic structure to a higher level
and applies this knowledge to the
periodic table.
Unit 2 - Chains, Energy and Resources
Introduces organic chemistry and
how we make new molecules,
whilst considering our impact on
the environment.
Unit 3 - Practical Skills
You will be assessed on practical skills
used during laboratory sessions.
These assessments will concentrate on
your ability to observe, measure, analyse
and evaluate results.
In Year 13...Unit 1 - Rings, Polymers and Analysis This unit continues the study of organic
chemistry and how we analyse and
identify the products.
Unit 2 - Equilibria, Energetics and Elements Considers the rate and equilibrium of
chemical reactions and also the energy
changes involved.
Unit 3 - Practical Skills
Future Opportunities? The choices with a Chemistry A level
are numerous and varied. For example
you can continue your studies of the
discipline to degree level studying
Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry,
Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry and
Chemistry with Computer Science
Or you can embark upon one of the
many professions for which an A level
in Chemistry is essential, such as
Medicine, Chemical Engineering,
Dentistry, Nursing, and Physiotherapy.

i
e are living in an
exciting age of
technological
developments that mainly owe
their advancements to the
science of Physics.
Studying Physics to a level beyond GCSE
will equip you with skills that are valuable
in ALL science related careers – however,
it may surprise you to hear that many
employers in non-scientific areas are
realising the value of a higher physics
qualification – the question is, have you?
From fundamental particles: quarks and
leptons to black holes and the universe,
physics - as a subject – really has no
equal in scale, depth and diversity.
And, therefore, no wonder it’s a tough
subject; but it’s worth the journey for
those with a passion for learning,
or those that need the subject for their
future career, or for those that need a
bigger challenge than they have so far
encountered, or for... those that don’t
know yet?
Here is a small example of the
importance of physics in sport: Why was
it that our cyclists in the Beijing Olympics
2008 were so successful? Yes they were
supreme athletes; no question of that,
but in addition to that, the cycles and
equipment they enjoyed were designed
and built, according to Professor Dave
Brailsford, performance director,
with ‘superior physics’ to that of any
other nation. Interesting!
What you will learn?The breakdown of the course is in 3 units.
Two of these are assessed externally
while the third unit involves practical
skills and investigative practical skills and
is assessed by the college throughout
the year.
Briefly you will focus on:
Particles, Quantum Phenomena
and Electricity (40%)
Mechanics, Materials
and Waves (40%)
Investigative and Practical Skills
in AS Physics (20%)

sychology teaches
you how to persuade
everyone else that
they are the strange ones!
Psychology o�ers you the chance to develop your knowledge, to becomeinsightful and to make a di�erence tothose around you. I don’t mean that youwill develop super powers, what I mean isthat you will gain a depth of understandingof the issues that are prevalent in oursociety today. Psychology is a subject thatintrigues and captivates. It o�ers yousomething new and exciting, somethingthat you have not tackled before, somethinga little deeper than the average GCSE that youhave experienced over the last few years.
In Year 12...Unit 1: In this unit you will explore
both social and cognitive psychology.
You will explore p eople are a�ected by others
and by social rules. There are two foci to
the social approach 1) Obedience to
authority; 2) prejudge. The cognitive
aspect explores the way that information
Unit 2: This unit looks at three speci�c
approaches: 1) the psychodynamic
approach, looking at Freud’s work on
the formation of personality and the e�ects
of the psychosexual stages of development.
In Year 13...
Future Opportunities?As a career choice Psychology o�ers
you the opportunity to work in a number
of fields, such as: Educational Health,
Occupational, Sport and/or Child
Psychology. Other caring avenues
include: Nursing, Teaching, Social Work
as well as Psychiatry.

together, the speci�c focus here is on sex and
gender development. 3) The learning approach
2) The biological approach, examining the

Unit 3: This unit covers applications of
psycology to certain areas. As a group
we will explaore two areas. Our choices are:
criminal psychology, the causes and
possible treatment methods for criminality;
child psychology, looking at how children
bond and attach, how development can bea�ected and what possible causes are therefor autism and ADHD; and/or health ,psychology, looks at substance with a focus
on heroin.
Unit 4: This unit brings all our our knowledgetogether. We will look at the problems withde�ning what is or is not ‘normal’, our focusis schizophrenia. The other thing that we lookat is ethics and the morality of psychology asan exploratory science.

The big di�erence is that you hone
your sports from the 4 you studied at
GCSE, to 2 in Y12 and then 1 in Y13. This
means that you focus on sports that you
are enthusiastic about and become
a specialist in that area. It will also
introduce you to new and interesting
topics and experiences. The course is
challenging but rewarding and
good fun!

AS Maths
The common route in Yr12 will be
Pure Core 1, Pure Core 2 and Statistics 1;
these three modules will then qualify for
an AS Level.
Core Maths will build on the basics of
trigonometry and algebra learnt at GCSE
and introduces further, more demanding
topics, such as calculus and co-ordinate
geometry. For example you will learn
quick ways of summing a series of
numbers that are in a pattern.
Statistics builds on the data handling,
data analysis and probability skills learnt
at GCSE and introduces new more
demanding topics such as permutations,
combinations and expectation. You will
learn, for example how to work out your
chances of winning the lottery!
A2 Maths
Core Maths will extend the topics
covered at AS and introduce new topics
such as numerical methods for solving
equations and properties of functions.
Decision Mathematics is the application
of mathematical modelling to solve
real world problems, often arising from
commercial and managerial concerns.
It involves the study of algorithms, graphs
and networks. For example you will learn
how to work out the least amount of
cable that a TV company will need to
connect a group of villages
What can you do with A level Maths?Your career opportunities after
following an AS Level Maths course
are extensive. Maths is seen as one
of the three basic subjects which
everyone ‘needs’. An AS or A2 in Maths
will demonstrate to employers that you
have skills in numeracy, data handling,
problem solving and logical thinking.
Engineering, commerce, management,
sciences and computer work all use
elements of maths which you will
meet in the A level course.

nglish Literature is an
extremely broad and
satisfying A level which
will challenge you to consider
new ideas and concepts.
Be prepared to discuss the views and
opinions of critics, analyse texts in detail
and read extensively around the subject.
It is acknowledged by Higher Education
Institutions as a versatile subject and is
recognised as a valuable A level,
no matter what career path you choose.
AS Level:Unit 1: Aspects of Narrative
Four texts must be studied including
Arundhati Roy’s ‘God of Small Things’
plus Mark Haddon’s ‘Curious Incident of
the Dog in the Nightime’. You will learn to
closely analyse the narrative method of
each text.
Furthermore, you will be given an
anthology of poetry dating from 1800 to
1945 that includes poetry from Tennyson,
Browning, Coleridge, Keats, Auden,
Hardy and Rossetti. You will study two
of these poets in depth. Currently we
are studying the poetry of WH Auden
and Christina Rossetti. You will learn to
compare texts through focusing on an
aspect of narrative.
Unit 2: Dramatic Genres
You will study two plays within the
dramatic genre of comedy. Currently
we study Shakespeare’s ‘Twelfth Night’
and Wilde’s ‘The Importance of Being Earnest.
You will produce two pieces of written work,
each of 1500 words, one of which
may be re-creative, based on
the plays studied.
A2 Level: Unit 3: Texts and Genres
Within this unit you will focus on
developing your ideas on the
significance of genre through the
‘Elements of the Gothic’
or ’Elements of the Pastoral’. Three texts
must be studied and at least one of
these must come from the 1300 –
1800 era. We currently study Bronte’s
‘Wuthering Heights’, Marlowe’s ‘Dr Faustus’
and Carter’s ‘The Bloody Chamber’.
Unit 4: Further and Independent Reading
You will study at least three texts, one
of which is a pre-released anthology of
critical writing. The aim of the unit is to
consider the di�erent ways of reading
texts and the critical ideas that can
be applied. Your portfolio of writing will
produce two pieces of written work, one
of which will be a comparative study of
an aspect of two texts. The second may
be a re-creative piece based on the
application of critical ideas.
