Biology

Course summary

This is a course that has been kept up-to-date, dealing with topics in ways that are easily seen as relevant to everyday life. We teach Edexcel Biology A, which maintains the best of the Salters Nuffield approach. The course aims to: use topical contexts; be accessible, yet intellectually demanding; emphasise application of knowledge; integrate activities and practical work throughout the course; make use of a full range of teaching and communication approaches and use student-centred, novel activities that show how biologists think and work in their professional lives.
