What the college says

Biology is one of the most diverse subjects available to study at A Level. It is a subject that seems to have no limits. As our understanding of the biological world increases, new specialised branches of this discipline are being forged all the time. In terms of overall relevance to our daily lives very few subjects come close by comparison. Biology is a subject that is unavoidable in today’s society and one that is always pushing the boundaries of our understanding. This irrefutable aspect of Biology provides an almost endless supply of opportunities and areas for young scientists to take advantage of and discover. Are you intrigued with the incredible variety of organisms that inhabit our planet and wonder about their origin and how they have evolved? Are you interested in the physiology of living organisms or want to understand how different organisms function in their environment? Are you concerned about climate change, our effect on our planet and populations of other living things? Are you interested in genetic engineering and how it will affect our future? If you enjoyed Biology at GCSE and would like to delve into it in more depth, then A Level Biology is the course for you.
