      GCSE Twenty First Century Science Suite 03 July 2017

      Changes to OCR’s GCSE (9–1) Twenty First Century Science Suite specifications

      As a result of customer feedback, we have revisited the GCSE (9–1) Twenty First Century Science specifications to bring the Combined Science specifications in line with the separate Biology, Chemistry and Physics specifications.

      We have made corrections to the ‘Teaching and learning narrative’ and the ‘Assessable learning outcomes’ of each specification. We have created a detailed list of the corrections, to be used as a reference.

      The amended specifications are now available on the qualification pages. If you have any queries about this notice, please email sciencegcse@ocr.org.uk.
