Biology involves the study of a wide range of topics ranging from the molecular and biochemical basis of life to the study of ecosystems and from microorganisms to mammals. It offers the opportunity to examine the background of broad and modern areas such as GM foods, conservation of species, cloning, epigenetics, vaccines and ‘factory farming’. These topics enable students to develop both depth and breadth of understanding of the biological world.
To study A-Level courses, a student must secure five Grade 5s at GCSE (or vocational course Distinctions), including either English or Maths. To study a specific A-Level course, a student must secure at least a Grade 6 in that subject (or a similar specified subject/s). Please see individual course requirements.
This subject falls under the Governmental curriculum changes for 2015. As a result, we no longer offer an AS Level qualification in this subject; students can only study the linear A-Level course which Involves 3 exams at the end of Year 13 only.
