Why GCSE Science matters
Combined Science — two GCSEs covering biology, chemistry and physics
GCSE Combined Science (often called Double Science or Trilogy) is the route most students take: it covers biology, chemistry and physics and is worth two GCSEs. It carries the same required grade expectations as the separate sciences and keeps every post-16 science route open, so getting a strong grade matters.
The challenge is breadth — three sciences' worth of content, each with its own recall, calculations and practicals, all under exam pressure. A specialist tutor helps a student shore up whichever of the three is weakest, master the maths-in-science skills common to all of them, and build exam technique for the longer questions.
Every science tutor on Teachers Delivered is a qualified teacher who has taught the current specification.
What GCSE Combined Science covers
Biology
Cells, organisation, infection, bioenergetics, homeostasis, inheritance and ecology.
Chemistry
Atomic structure, bonding, quantitative chemistry, rates, organic and analysis.
Physics
Energy, electricity, particles, forces, waves and magnetism.
Maths in science
Graphs, percentages, rearranging equations and units — marks common to all three.
Required practicals
The set experiments examined in the written papers across the sciences.
Extended questions
The 6-mark 'explain' questions where technique makes the difference.

GCSE Science Tutors: common questions
Is Combined Science 'lower' than the separate sciences?
No — it covers all three sciences in slightly less depth and is worth two GCSEs rather than three. It keeps A-Level sciences open; the separate/Triple route simply goes a little further in each.
My child is fine in two sciences but weak in one — can a tutor help?
Yes, and that's a common, efficient way to use tutoring — targeting the weakest of the three often moves the overall grade the most.
Foundation or Higher tier?
Higher targets grades 4–9 (as combined 4-4 to 9-9), Foundation 1–5. A tutor can advise after a short assessment.
Which exam boards do your tutors cover?
AQA (Trilogy), Edexcel (Pearson), OCR (Gateway and 21st Century) and WJEC/Eduqas — matched to your child's board.
How much does a tutor cost?
A flat price per hour-long lesson (platform minimum £40), shown on each profile. Pay securely by card.
Are your tutors qualified teachers?
Yes — qualified, experienced science teachers with a verified Enhanced DBS.
