Understanding biology is the key to understanding the development of life. Finding cures for diseases, tackling environmental issues and solving crimes through forensics are just some of the important roles a biologist can play in society. During this course, you can expect to develop a wealth of knowledge on biological molecules, cells, human physiology, genetics and the treatment of disease, and more. Understanding biology is crucial for comprehending the functioning of our bodies, from organs to cells and genes. It also sheds light on the evolution and interactions of Earth's diverse organisms. Biologists contribute significantly to society by creating vaccines, enhancing healthcare, addressing species loss via conservation, and aiding in forensic investigations. This course offers comprehensive insight into biological molecules, cells, human physiology, evolution, genetic technology, and more. Additionally, it hones practical laboratory skills, precision in experiments, and proficiency in statistical analysis.
You will need a total of 5 GCSEs at level 4 or above including: • English Language (Grade 4) • Maths (Grade 5) • Double Science (Grade 6/5) or Biology (Grade 6) if studying Triple Science • Plus, one or two other GCSEs at grade 4 if you only have GCSEs in Biology or Double Science.
This course is assessed primarily by examination scheduled for May/June at the end of the second year with some additional practical assessments.
