Course summary

Religious Studies is an exciting and interesting subject that investigates ‘The Big Questions’ in life and considers what religious beliefs have to offer modern society. It is more than just learning about religion, it requires you to consider your own and others viewpoints about topical issues relating to human behaviour and experiences and offers an opportunity to consider topics that will challenge you both academically and personally. Students who take Religious Studies for A-level enjoy debating ideas and thinking more deeply and critically about concepts that are central to human life. The course also provides students with a number of transferable skills which are highly valued by employers and Universities. It is particularly valuable for students who wish to pursue careers in medicine, law, teaching, nursing, business and politics.
