A name which serves to underline the multi-faceted nature of this modern A Level course, Religious Studies is an inclusive subject, designed for people of any faith or none. The main prerequisite is a curiosity about the world and the way it works. Studying Religious Studies develops critical thinking: the ability to analyse a point of view; to develop and reason through argument and the ability to reach a logical and justified conclusion. For this reason, it is valued by universities and employers in journalism, government, law and medicine, amongst many others. Religious Studies A Level would fit well with any arts-based or humanities subjects but could equally be a suitable option for any student who is specialising in the sciences but wishes to retain a link to a more abstract discipline that still relates closely to their other studies.
An average GCSE score of 5.5 across a minimum of 7 subjects is required for entry to our Sixth Form along with a satisfactory school report. Further details can be found below in the key information section. Students must fulfil the entry requirements of Wolverhampton Grammar Sixth Form and will be expected to achieve a minimum Grade 6 in Religious Studies, History or English Literature GCSE/IGCSE.
