Course summary

We follow the OCR Religious Studies syllabus for Philosophy and Ethics. The syllabus tackles issues that are at the forefront of many areas of intellectual and ethical discussion and aims to promote a critical and enquiring response in the students. It helps them identify and explore issues that are fundamental to religion and to the world at large.

Entry requirements

Students considering transfer to King’s Sixth Form are required to meet the entry requirements of an average of grade 6 or higher across eight GCSE subjects, with a minimum of a grade 5 in both Mathematics and English Language (university matriculation requirements). Most subjects recommend a grade 7 - 9 in a subject to be studied at A Level, and this is compulsory for Mathematics and Science subjects. In addition, subjects with a large mathematical content, such as Economics, require a minimum of grade 7 in Mathematics. Many students who did not take Religious Studies GCSE choose to take it at A Level and they do not find this a hindrance.

How you'll be assessed

There are three units assessed by three, two hour written papers.
