OCR’s A Level in Religious Studies has been designed to provide a coherent and thought provoking programme of study, whilst also acting as a rigorous course of study which prepares you for progression to Higher Education. This qualification is designed to develop a greater understanding and appreciation of religious beliefs and teachings, as well as the disciplines of ethics and philosophy of religion. You will develop your skills of critical analysis in order to construct balanced, informed arguments and responses to religious, philosophical and ethical ideas. You will learn to adopt an enquiring, critical and reflective approach to the study of religion. You will reflect on and develop your own values, opinions and attitudes in the light of your study. There is the opportunity for you to apply your knowledge and skills to contemporary issues, creating an up-to-date and thoroughly relevant course. There is an emphasis on enabling you to respond critically and engage with a wealth of philosophical, ethical and religious concepts, equipping you with analytical skills readily transferable to other subjects.
Offers of places will be made based on predicted GCSE Grades and applicants will require at least 5 passes at Grade 5 or above; at least a 6 in any subject to be studied at A Level except for Mathematics and the Sciences in which the candidate must have achieved at least a Grade 7.
