Biology is a rapidly developing science, and the A Level course has been designed to reflect this. It provides a foundation for further studies in Biology and related areas. This course is designed to develop essential knowledge and understanding of different subject areas and how they relate to each other. It will help develop confidence in a variety of practical, mathematical and problem-solving skills, whilst promoting the understanding of scientific methods. By the end of the course, students will have a better understanding of how we make decisions about scientific issues and how the study of Biology can contribute to the success of both the economy and society.
An offer is conditional on attaining a minimum of Grade 4 in English and Mathematics at GCSE/IGCSE and a minimum of Grade 6 in the subjects applicants hope to study at A Level. Ideally, pupils should be competent scientists with both mathematical ability and good written English. They will need to have achieved a 6 in GCSE Biology or 6-6 in Double Award Science and preferably the equivalent grades in both Mathematics and English Language.
