Logic / Philosophy

Course summary

Philosophy is concerned with ideas: ideas about the world, ideas about the self, ideas about others, ideas about right and wrong, and ideas about the beyond. Philosophy pulls these ideas apart and forms them anew. A Level Philosophy is stimulating, challenging and thought-provoking. It is an essay-based subject requiring a certain amount of intellectual curiosity and a willingness to reflect on the big questions of life. While a logical mind is a good starting point, you will also develop a range of transferable skills that are applicable far beyond the study of philosophy. For the study of A Level Philosophy, there are no pre-requisites but a willingness to read, write, research and discuss is expected.
