A Level Biology follows the Edexcel specification and builds upon the concepts and skills developed in GCSE Science. The course presents biological principles in contexts that students will find interesting and engaging. Biology is both fascinating and challenging and we aim to develop students’ interest in and enthusiasm for Biology including an interest in further study and careers in the subject. Lesson content is varied and typically may involve discussion, group presentation, role play, reading, exam preparation, practical activity, observation and biological drawing. It is expected that you will have an interest in the subject and be prepared to learn independently. Year 13 also requires students to take part in a residential field course, during which, compulsory content will be taught.
