Biology (A Level)

Assessment

This specification allows teachers to adopt a flexible approach to delivering A Level Biology. The course has been designed to enable centres to deliver the content modules (Modules 2–6) using the framework provided, or to design a customised course. Practical work undertaken to support the content's teaching will cover the requirements of the practical skills module (Module 1), which is assessed in the written examinations and through the Practical Endorsement. The specification is divided into topics, each containing different key concepts of biology. Throughout the specification, cross-references indicate the relevance of individual learning outcomes to the mathematical and practical criteria that are embedded in the assessments.
