Topic 1: Biological Molecules Structure and function and biological molecules, and the roles of enzymes in living organisms. Topic 2: Cells and Viruses Cell ultra-structure in animals, plants, bacteria, and viruses, and the roles of mitosis and meiosis in life cycles. Topic 3: Classification Comparing modern and original classification techniques, and how these are relevant to conversation strategies to maintain biodiversity. Topic 4: Exchange and Transport Transport systems and mechanisms used in both animals and plants and involve dissections of the respiratory and circulatory systems. Topic 5: Energy for Biological Processes Respiration and Photosynthesis. Topic 6: Microbiology and Pathogens Immune response and culturing bacterial colonies. Topic 7: Modern Genetics Genetic modification and gene technologies. Topic 8: Origins of Genetic Variation Genetic inheritance and causes of variation. Topic 9: Control Systems Homeostasis and nervous control. Topic 10: Ecosystems Environmental fieldwork techniques, energy transfer, nutrient recycling, and conservation.
Minimum of 5 subjects at grade 5 including/as well as grade 4 or above in English and Maths. Grade 9 to 6 in GCSE Biology (or Combined Science) and grade 6 or above in GCSE Mathematics. If students achieve a grade 5, they will be considered if they agree to take Core Maths in addition to their 3 subjects. If the class is full, priority will be given to those students who achieve a grade 6 in Maths
