Course summary

The course is divided into three components: • Philosophy • Ethics • Religious Thought In Philosophy you will study questions such as ‘how do we know what we know?’, ‘is there a God?’ and ‘do we have a soul?’. Ethics will challenge your thoughts on how you determine what is right and wrong. Religious Thought raises issues such as free will and what happens when we die. It is a subject that will change the way you think. Having an A level in this subject will prepare you well for any Humanities based degree course. It complements subjects such as theology, classic civilizations, history, law, sociology and psychology, as well as any literacy based subject such as English.
