Science Form 3 — Bridge to IGCSE

About Course
Science Form 3 — Bridge to IGCSE. The bridge year: genes, the Periodic Table, reactions and energy, electricity and magnetism, heat — and a final unit that previews IGCSE Core so Form 4 feels familiar.
The course lays the foundations for Cambridge IGCSE Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Every idea you meet here is used again in the later Forms, so nothing has to be relearned.
What is inside
- 24 illustrated lessons in big, clear text with colourful diagrams.
- Worked examples in every lesson, one step per line.
- Practice questions with model answers you reveal when you are ready.
- 214 quiz questions — a quiz after every lesson, with every answer explained.
- Virtual experiments in 11 lessons — take real readings, record them in a table, draw the graph and write a conclusion, just like in a school lab.
- Flashcards and a checklist so you can see what you have mastered.
