In Philosophy, students explore the complex and diverse religious and secular ideas, beliefs and morals which exist in Britain and the world today. They are guided in producing their own well-reasoned answers in response to philosophical, ethical and religious ultimate questions. The material covered is intellectually challenging but also interesting and stimulating. Students are expected to engage with it effectively, with an inquiring mind and questioning approach. They will learn to ask complex questions and analyse and evaluate their own answers. In class, the students are given a safe environment in which to explore philosophical, ethical, religious and secular ideas, their own thoughts, and the arguments of others. Lessons are interactive and relevant, with students encouraged to take an active rather than passive role and delve into issues that impact all of us, in our everyday lives, in the media, and in the world in which we live.
GCSE Religious Studies is not essential. You will, however, need to have achieved Grade 6 (or higher) in English and a humanities discipline (Geography, History or Religious Studies).
All course content is examined at the end of the two-year course. The assessment consists of two written exams. Paper 1: Written exam. Epistemology & Ethics. 3 hours. 50% of final marks Paper 2: Written exam. The Metaphysics of God & The Metaphysics of the Mind. 3 hours. 50% of final marks.
