Geography is a dynamic subject that has to keep changing as the world around us keeps changing. Now, more than ever, it is essential that we understand how humans interact with the natural environment if we are to protect the world from irreversible damage and give all inhabitants a high quality of life.
Normally we would consider the candidate’s projected or actual GCSE results. Generally we expect candidates to obtain at least five GCSEs at grade 5 and above in order to follow an AS/A level programme, with at least grade 6 in the subjects selected for studying at A level, or in relevant subjects where a student is starting a subject from scratch (such as Psychology or Business Studies). We reserve the right to alter these expectations on a case-by-case basis. Those not undertaking GCSEs will need to show suitable ability.
