Geography at A level bridges science and the arts, and dovetails neatly with most other subjects. The new course is very interesting and challenging as it covers a wide range of topics, which overlap with many A levels studied in the Sixth Form. To study Geography at A level it is essential to have studied GCSE Geography. As a subject which involves numeracy, literacy and evaluative skills, Geography can be studied with arts or science subjects. At degree level, Geography, as a social science, may be taken as either a BA or a BSc course.
A typical Sixth Form student will join Year 12 with a minimum of six GCSEs at Level 5 or above, including Mathematics and English, with Level 6 achieved in those subjects they propose to study at A Level.
