Biology

Assessment

The internally assessed Practical Endorsement skills form part of the full A Level. Appropriate practical activities are embedded within the learning outcomes of the course which contribute to the achievement of the Practical Endorsement as well as enhancing the student’s understanding of biological theory and practical skills. All of our groups are taught by 2 members of staff, but students must appreciate that the subject material cannot be learnt in isolation if top grades are to be achieved. Success in Biology relies on students appreciating the need to apply their knowledge and understanding.
