What the college says

Through both AS and A Level it is hoped to stimulate an interest and understanding of biological facts and principles and foster an appreciation of the contribution of the subject to today's society. Over the two years, candidates are expected to further develop the fundamental scientific skills introduced through practical work at GCSE, thereby producing biologists who are also competent practical scientists. The mathematical content accounts for at least 10percent of examined content and requires a careful, logical and methodical approach.
