Chemistry A-level for mature students/external candidates

Hi,

Does anyone know how you go about sitting an A-level in Chemistry as an external candidate? I'm trying to find an institution that is willing to take me on so I can sit the practical elements of the course.

I am able to find a school/college to take me on for the written elements but currently no one will enable me to do practicals.
I don't require a teacher for lessons or supervision as I have a private tutor with a Masters degree in Chemistry who can supervise me and teach me the theoretical aspects of the course.

Thanks!
Hi. 3A Tutors in Bristol - http://www.3atutors.co.uk/ - offers practical exams (and practice sessions if wanted) for A Level chemistry. I took my son there a few years ago for his IGCSEs, and we stayed overnight in a local hotel between exams.

There are probably other exam centres that do this too, but I haven't come across any others that have labs for practical exams.
