We confirm the syllabus code, exam series and paper route for IB DP. Everything else depends on this.

IB DP Chemistry is examined on two papers plus a 20% Scientific Investigation, and under the 2025 guide there is no Paper 3. Every HL mark rides on longer versions of the same two papers and on the IA.
A simple four-step approach designed to build confidence, close gaps and improve exam performance.
We confirm the syllabus code, exam series and paper route for IB DP. Everything else depends on this.
A diagnostic against the syllabus topics tells us what's secure and what isn't, so we teach the gaps rather than the whole book.
The same tutor teaches each week around school. Concepts build step by step, with the school's pace kept in view.
Past-paper questions begin early, followed by full timed papers marked against the published mark scheme.
Expert, vetted IB DP Chemistry tutors who have taught the IB DP specification. Past-paper work is reviewed against published mark schemes, so your child can see where marks are awarded and where they are being lost. UK-qualified teachers are available on request as a premium option.
Not "ib dp chemistry in general" - this syllabus, this tier and these papers.
Your child learns where the marks actually are, not where they feel they should be.
Shared whiteboard, worked solutions and lesson materials saved to review after the session.
The same tutor every week - and if that changes, we tell you first.
IB DP Chemistry is externally examined on two papers, plus an internally assessed Scientific Investigation. Under the 2025 guide there is no Paper 3, so precision in the two papers and early IA work matter more.

Papers 1 and 2 together carry 80% of the grade. The internal assessment component is 20%. Grades run from 1 to 7.

2025 - 2027IB DP subjects combine external papers with internal assessment. The best gains usually come from fixing component-specific technique rather than doing more undirected revision.
These are the main syllabus strands your child is expected to cover. We teach all of them, starting with the gaps that are costing marks first.
We keep the current schema and seed these as direct subjects for now, while still reflecting the SL/HL and IA structure from the IB documents.

Yes. This subject is available at Standard Level and Higher Level, with the exact demand and paper structure depending on the current IB guide.
Scientific Investigation. It carries 20% and is one of the most controllable parts of the final grade.
External papers and the internal assessment combine into a single final subject grade from 1 to 7 against IB standards.
The level should be chosen against the university target, the student's current performance, and the workload across the full Diploma.
Usually the investigation left too late, weak data-based technique, or precision gaps in longer answers and mechanisms.
Yes. We support both the paper technique and the internal assessment, because weak IA planning quietly caps strong exam performance.
It is one of the six Diploma Programme subjects; students also complete Theory of Knowledge and the Extended Essay alongside it.
We replace the tutor free of charge and hand the learning context over so your child does not lose momentum.
