About Course

Science Form 1 — IGCSE Foundations. Your first year of secondary science: how scientists work, cells, particles, forces, energy and space.

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 9 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.

The units

  1. Being a scientist
  2. Cells and living things
  3. Particles and materials
  4. Forces
  5. Energy
  6. Earth and space

Who it is for

Students starting secondary school (about age 12–13). Parents and teachers can use it to support learning at home or in class.

Next step: Form 2.
