EXPLAINING CPAC:
In order to achieve a pass, students will need to have met the following expectations.
Students will be expected to develop these competencies through the acquisition of the technical skills specified in Appendix 5 of the DfE subject content for each science subject Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Students can demonstrate these competencies in any practical activity undertaken throughout the course of study. The 12 practical activities prescribed in the subject specification, which cover the requirements of Appendix 5c, will provide opportunities for demonstrating competence in all the skills identified together with the use of apparatus and practical techniques for each subject.
Students may work in groups but must be able to demonstrate and record independent evidence of their competency. This must include evidence of independent application of investigative approaches and methods to practical work.
Teachers who award a pass to their students need to be confident that the student consistently and routinely exhibits the competencies listed below before completion of the A level course.

To know that early models of the atomic structure predicted that atoms and ions with noble gas electron arrangements should be stable
LESSON 2: Isotopes
To explain the existence of isotopes
To determine the relative atomic mass of elements using isotope abundance data
To understand the physical and chemical properties of different isotopes
LESSON 3: MASS SPECTROMETER
To recall how to calculate the Ar and Mr
To understand the m/z ratio
To know how a mass spectrometer operates
LESSON 4: MASS SPECTRA ANALYSIS
To understand how to interpret a mass spectrum and calculate relative atomic mass
To understand how to work out the relative molecular/formula mass
To consolidate with questions
LESSON 5: ELECTRON CONFIGURATION OVER 2 LESSONS
To understand the electron configuration of atoms and ions
To be able to write the electron configuration of atoms up to Z=36 in terms of levels and sub-levels (orbitals) s, p and d
To understand that there are exceptions to the rules for ions and certain elements
LESSON 7: IONISATION ENERGIES
To state the definition of ionisation energies
To describe the trend in ionisation energies a) down a group and b) across a period in terms of electron configurations
To explain how trends in ionisation energies provide evidence for the existence of electron energy levels and sub-levels
