Part of the Eduqas GCSE Combined Science curriculum.
Eduqas GCSE Combined Science 3 Health and Disease is a step-by-step online learn guide for GCSE students in Years 10 and 11, mapped to the Eduqas specification (WJEC Eduqas GCSE Combined Science (C430) – 3.1–3.4 Health, disease and the development of medicines). It covers health and disease, communicable diseases, defences and the immune system, vaccination, antibiotics and resistance, developing new medicines, lifestyle and non-communicable disease and treating cardiovascular disease, then brings it all together with mixed retrieval and exam practice.
There are 26 short steps of about 15 minutes (roughly 6.5 hours of learning), each made of bite-size explanations with key words, tables and examples, and every bite-size is followed by an activity you check straight away. Key terms include Health, Disease, Virus, Bacterium, Phagocyte, Lymphocyte, Vaccine, Immune, Antibiotic, Penicillin, Preclinical testing and Clinical testing.
