The course is divided into equal thirds: Christian Theology, Ethics, and Philosophy of Religion. Regardless of the topic studied students are required to critically deconstruct and analyse key ideas that are placed before them. Within Christian Theology topics include the place of Christianity within modern society and an assessment of key theological doctrines. Ethics allows students to consider the validity of the theories that underpin ethical decision making and then apply these ideas to modern-day situations. Philosophy of Religion allows students to consider whether God’s existence can be proven, if religious experiences of individuals reflect reality and whether a good, loving God and evil can co-exist.
Offers of places at 16+ are conditional on applicants achieving our required grades at GCSE, IB MYP or the equivalent foreign examinations. We ask for three 7 grades (or grade A) and above and another three 6 grades (or grade B) and above at GCSE or for IB MYP we require three 6 grades and three 5 grades. These should include English and mathematics and, where applicable, the subjects chosen for IB Higher Level or A-Level. We allocate places on academic merit, considered alongside the potential to contribute to our co-curricular programme. We recommend at least a Grade 6 at I/GCSE in any subject taken at IB Higher Level or A-level; students will not normally be allowed to pursue a subject in which they have attained less than a Grade 5.
Three papers of equal weighting at the end of the course: Paper 1 (2 hours) – Philosophy of Religion (33.3%) Paper 2 (2 hours) – Religion and Ethics (33.3%) Paper 4b (2 hours) – Christianity (33.3%)
