Nuffield Science 13 to 16: D units
The 10 Further Science ('D') units in the Nuffield 13-16 programme each included enough material for eight double periods. Together they provided for a double-award in science by covering the content of a second Science course when combined with three X units. Schools were expected to cover about two and a half units in a term.
The booklets for students were supplemented by worksheets, to be found in the middle of most teachers’ guides. These could be copied for a particular class or for a few students in a class.
