A Level The following three components are studied over the course: Philosophy of Religion Philosophical issues and questions; the nature and influence of religious experience; problems of evil and suffering; philosophical language; works of scholars; influences of developments in religious belief. Ethics Significant concepts in issues or debates in religion and ethics; a study of three ethical theories; application of ethical theories to issues of importance; ethical language; deontology, virtue ethics and the works of scholars; medical ethics: beginning and end of life issues. Study of Religion and Dialogues Religious beliefs, values and teachings; sources of wisdom and authority; practices that shape and express religious identity; social and historical developments; works of scholars; religion and society; primary texts.
As the entire A Level is essay based, it is recommended that you have at least a Grade 6 in GCSE English as an indicator of your ability to write academically. Study of GCSE Religious Studies is helpful but not essential as course content is significantly different.
