Religious Studies is available to students of any religious persuasion or none. The subject at A level aims to introduce the academic study of religious belief and to develop critical awareness of some of the theological, philosophical and ethical perspectives within the western intellectual tradition. Students will gain knowledge and understanding of diverse material and points of view. They will learn to evaluate religious issues and to present orderly and lucid arguments. Students are not required to have studied religious studies at GCSE.
Entry at year 12 is by assessment at St Swithun’s during the first weekend in November of the year before her intended entry. The assessment includes a series of interviews and written papers in your daughter’s chosen A level subjects. The assessments are broadly based on the GCSE specifications except in the case of subjects which have not been studied before: these look for a general interest in the subjects and the ability to write logically.
