Religious Studies

Course summary

A Level Religious Studies is one of the fastest growing subjects nationally, not least because of the key philosophical questions and current ethical issues it tackles. Much like A Level Philosophy, it will particularly appeal to students who have an interest in conceptual thought, have a capacity for analytical thinking, and enjoy a good debate. The course requires no specific religious commitment or former knowledge, and can be studied by anyone with an enquiring and critical mind. Although the qualification is in Religious Studies, the content of the course is very different to GCSE Religious Studies and the GCSE is not required to take the A Level.
