The development of investigative, observation and research skills is integral to Biology. At A Level many GCSE topics are studied in greater depth and new ones introduced. In Year 12 pupils study the cellular and biochemical make up of organisms in relation to medical developments and ideas such as risk factors for illness, as well as the biochemical and anatomical principles behind diseases. Students are introduced to advanced ecology and the three-day Field Trip in the summer term is an essential part of the course. In Year 13, coordination and control are explored from the molecular level of how genes work through the hormonal and nervous coordination systems, to the behaviour of whole organisms in their environments. Principles are strongly linked with applications such as genetics and gene technologies, the study of ecosystems with sustainability.
